PSY 315 - Theories of Counseling Psychology

3 Credits

This course is an introduction to the fundamental theories of the psycho-therapeutic process, for students who are considering careers as therapists or counselors, for those who plan to work with at-risk populations, and for those who are interested in processes of personal change and psychological growth. This course is not intended to teach students to be therapists or counselors, but to give them a basic understanding of the theoretical perspectives of those professions, and sufficient background to determine whether and how they might pursue careers in such a field.
Prerequisites: Any 200-level PSY course or junior standing
