About this course

In a noisy world that is complex, uncertain and constantly changing, it's more important than ever that there are people who can listen.

The number of full-time counsellors continues to grow, and counselling skills are becoming increasingly relevant in other professions, such as nursing, social work, teaching and other community-based roles.

If you are passionate about making a difference to individuals, families and communities, ECU's online Master of Counselling will give you tools that you can apply to a range of settings.

ECU's online Master of Counselling has been accredited by the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and will develop your capabilities in working with individuals and communities in a way that emphasises cultural awareness and person-centred approaches. You will learn how to translate and deliver counselling across modalities, as well as develop key practices to continue your own development.

You will also benefit from the opportunity to put your skills into practice on placement.

*Duration depends on individual study path and unit availability. Please speak to a Student Enrolment Advisor for advice.
