Purpose: Of this module is to equip students with the necessary skills, competencies and values to engage in purposeful encounters between people through meaningful engagement in a counselling framework. Students will develop skills on how to be develop and display sensitivity with regards to the ethos of context appropriate counselling and also understand its potential to enhance humanness and well-being in society. They furthermore acknowledge reflexivity as tools towards social transformation. This module responds to recent initiatives by the Department of Health aimed at making counselling more accessible to a broader constituency. Successful completion of the module does not qualify students to be fully fledged counsellors. The module instead serves as a foundation towards a career in counselling and is guided by the professional ethics of counselling.
