About Counselling

What is counselling?

Counselling is a way for mental health professionals to work with clients to increase their wellbeing and self-esteem, and find a way to address mental illness, relationship issues, and provide face-to-face support services through counselling help.

Counselling may be done as a choice, as a part of a mental health care plan, prescribed by the courts or by a doctor in cases of domestic violence or sexual assault, or as a part of social work.

Why study counselling?

Counselling is a brilliant way to specialise in a particular area. You may choose to study family violence counselling, relationship counselling, working with family members to help with parents relationships to young people in their family, in student support or in drug and alcohol counselling. 

Professional counselling is an important part of mental health care, there’s never been a better time to get further information about counselling. 

In a course you may learn about:

  • How to run counselling session
  • How to write professional documents like an annual report
  • What some of the FAQ’s are that you’ll be asked
  • Different treatment options, including the positives and negatives of different medications, CBD and hypnotism
  • Different requirements in different states
