EGC 660 Applied Child and Adolescent Individual Counselling Practice
This course will enable candidates to develop clinical intervention skills using several different modalities. Candidates will apply interviewing and counselling skills in pre-interventions (mastery of pre-intervention protocols, including delivering and interpreting school-based assessments, motivational interviewing; and prevention psycho-education programs), interventions for behaviour problems, violence, drug and alcohol issues, school problems, crisis intervention, loss and bereavement, trauma and family issues; and post-intervention (integrative team approaches in developing critical incident debriefing; report writing and reparation). The skills attained in this course will enable candidates to apply clinical counselling skills in schools and community settings.
