SOWK 3122

This course offers students the opportunity to explore effective approaches for counselling individuals, with an emphasis on decolonizing and anti-racist frameworks. Building on the foundational concepts of SOWK 2122, this course focuses on current evidence-based and wise practice approaches including cognitive behavioural counselling, grief counselling, crisis intervention, mediation, and motivational interviewing. Through an inclusive, culturally responsive lens, students will develop skills to engage with clients’ individual, systemic, cultural, and spiritual differences, deepening their ability to provide compassionate, empowering, and socially just support.
