Program Overview

PG Diploma in Counseling Psychologyis Post Graduate Diploma level one year (2 Semester) program is a rigorous theoretical and practical oriented course aiming to develop requisite knowledge, understanding, attitudes and skills in the area of counselling. For a long time now it has been recognized that there is an increasing need for counselling professionals, yet there is a dearth of trained experts who could work for promoting mental health and helping individuals in psychological distress. Thus, there is a tremendous need for education and training in this area. The PG Diploma in Counselling Psychology will train professionals in this vital field which is gaining ever greater salience in the present times both from the social and employment perspectives. In the contemporary social milieu, counselling experts are required both for promoting positive life, strengthening families, fostering positive parenting, corporate counselling and mentoring and increasing resilience of individuals in vulnerable situations, as well as for addressing negative aspects such as socio-psychological problems, maladaptive behaviours, psychosomatic disorders and the like.
