Clinical Practice & Skill Development with Children, Adolescents, Adults, Couples & Families

Bower Place supervised practice students/interns are placed  within the Complex Needs Clinic, a public teaching clinic designed to address complex, multi-system and co-morbid difficulties. Referrals are accepted from education, health, justice and welfare systems. You actively engage in therapy with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families, and their wider system. Clients present with a wide range of mental health, relationship and individual difficulties.

With key lecturers, Malcolm Robinson and Catherine Sanders, you experience an individualised approach to learning therapeutic, clinical and counselling practice skills and knowledge. A Learning Programme is tailored to meet individual personal learning goals. These may relate to a specific system (e.g. school, health), group (e.g. family, couples), skill area (e.g. interviewing, intervention) or symptom or problem category (e.g. eating disorders, childhood behavior problems).

Theoretical understanding is directly tied to practice and skill development.
