Approved elective course for Collaborative Program in Women’s Studies
This course will provide students an opportunity to gain knowledge of feminist-informed counselling approaches and issues that are relevant to working with women. The practice framework draws heavily on feminist, relational and narrative ways of working as well as drawing on material which focuses on specific counselling issues and themes. This course views clinical issues within the wider social cultural context and is sensitive to the influences of the dominant discourses in our practice. The course will focus on the development of practice skills through discussion of practice situation and scenarios. The course will also integrate the use of non-verbal and creative modalities with clients.
