Clearing 2026: why Counselling, Communities and Social Work?
Apply for Counselling, Communities and Social Work Clearing courses at UEL's School of Childhood and Social Care.
Counselling is a profession dedicated to helping individuals navigate their emotional challenges and improve their overall well-being.
Through a combination of theoretical study, experiential learning, and supervised placements, you will develop the necessary expertise to build strong and supportive relationships with clients.
During the course, you will engage in personal therapy experiences, where you will have the opportunity to reflect on your own thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This process not only enhances your self-awareness but also allows you to understand the impact of counselling on a personal level.
