Synopsis
Successful psychoeducational, counselling and supervision groups are led by facilitators who have developed competencies in planning, listening, observing, and responding to group dynamics and process, and leading interventions. This course equips students with an understanding of the theoretical bases for group work and provides opportunity for students to learn about the process of a therapy group from beginning to end. In the first group of topics, the focus is on understanding the theory of group work, understanding the role of the group leader/s, and exploring ethical and legal issues in group counselling. The focus then shifts to understanding the group process. Finally, the course focuses on the application of group work in various settings.
This course contains a mandatory four-day residential school and 10 hours of mandatory online synchronous tutorials.
