Minor Thesis (Part A)

This unit of study requires students to gain experience in researching and implementing a counselling research project. Students will be required to identify an area of counselling focus from within their placement and develop an evidence based intervention program. Students will identify a target problem within the population related to their counselling placement and to research intervention approaches for this target problem. This involves researching evidence based/established intervention approaches in the literature. Based on the literature review, students will be required to develop and implement an intervention program with the identified target group, typically over a 4-6 week period depending on what the literature recommends.
