Empathy in Action
Learn techniques and interventions to address individuals, couples, or groups’ psychological, emotional, and mental health needs. Students in this discipline typically gain a comprehensive understanding of counseling methodologies, psychological assessments, and ethical considerations in therapeutic practice. The goal is to prepare individuals for careers as counselors, therapists, or clinical practitioners who can effectively support others in navigating mental health challenges and personal growth.
Help people directly – one-on-one or in pairs or small groups – with the struggles, anxieties and issues of their lives, and give them the tools to reach their personal goals.
