About The Course

About the course

Supporting physical and mental health is central in all areas of life and employment. This master’s degree integrates the promotion of health and wellness with a focus on mental and physical health and wellbeing.

This degree course is for psychology graduates or those with qualifications in health and mental healthcare who want to further their studies, knowledge and skills and enhance their career opportunities.

On this course, you’ll gain the knowledge, clinical practitioner and professional skills you need for a career working with clients and patients in health-related settings.

What you will gain

You’ll focus on developing your professional skills including clinical, counselling and research skills, analysing and appraising the usefulness and application of psychological theories, and becoming an ethical and reflective practitioner.

You’ll develop your skills in intervention, working with clients and developing professional and clinical skills which you can practice on an eight-week professional placement with one of our industry partners. This placement experience can build confidence, provide useful work experience for your CV, and help you build your future career network.
