Institution:

Henderson State University

Subject:

Description:

Examines the therapeutic process and practical elements of counseling interactions. Discussions include consideration of ethical and professional issues. An experiential laboratory promotes essential listening and attending skills. The course promotes the development of self-evaluation, writing, and critical thinking skills; encourages integration of theoretical and experiential learning; facilitates the formation of a personal model of the counseling process; challenges self-reflection on personal qualities that support and hinder attempts at being therapeutic for others; and helps students understand ways to apply the major theories to specific cases. Courses outside the classroom: Independent Study, Independent Research, and Practicum in Psychology are special courses for advanced students. No one is automatically permitted to take these. Interested students must submit a formal plan for the proposed project or volunteer work, which must be approved by the mentoring professor and the person who will supervise the work on-site.
