Clinical Psychology Professional Practice - PSYC984

This unit will focus on the advanced professional practice skills necessary for a well-rounded competent therapist in working with various populations and work-settings. Drawing on the common factors related to the client-therapist relationship, issues of therapeutic integration will be explored in relation to individuals with complex diagnoses, couples, and groups including working with vulnerable populations. These principles will be emphasised in application to individual, couple and group clients in the light of ethical and cross-cultural, gender, and diversity considerations.
In addition, the role of psychologists in working with different professionals and work settings will also be discussed in context of professional responsibility, boundaries and negotiating workplace agreements.
