Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Counselling with Addiction

Counselling involves engaging and listening to clients about their emotions, relationships, thought processes, patterns of behaviour or life events such as bereavement, addiction, divorce, health issues or job concerns. Counsellors help clients to understand themselves better and find their own solutions to resolve or cope with their situation or issues. Counsellors play a crucial role in improving the health and wellbeing of people in society. This is a collaborative programme between MTU and Cuan Mhuire/Galilee House of Studies. Cuan Mhuire is Ireland’s ‘largest multisite provider of residential detoxification and treatment for those suffering from addiction’ (www.cuanmhuire.ie). Galilee House of Studies is an established provider of a higher education undergraduate diploma programme in counselling located in Athy, Co. Kildare.
