Using real-life case studies, students will develop their understanding of how different forms of vulnerabilities can affect how victims, witnesses and suspects experience the criminal justice system. Students will apply risk assessments to individuals using scenario-based work.\r\n\r\nThe module provides real insights into the workings of the criminal justice system and how this is experienced differently by vulnerable individuals.

You will also be given an opportunity to learn how counsellors and psychotherapists work in four key therapeutic approaches: Person-Centred, Psychoanalytic, Cognitive, and Behavioural. In addition, you will learn about the key skills required to work as a therapist, including communication skills, managing distress, and helping others. Most importantly, you will apply this knowledge by discussing a range of real-world case studies and practicing your communication skills in one-to-one interpersonal sessions. If you choose to pursue a career in counselling or psychotherapy, then the content, activities, and assessments on this module will support you in beginning to develop your foundation of skills. However, even if you choose not to pursue a career in this field, the knowledge gained, and skills developed on this module will be valuable across a wide range of helping professions.
