Wellness Counselling

Wellness Counselling A two year master's course in a strength-based approach to counselling, approved by and affiliated t This course is founded by Padma Shri awardee Dr. Fr. Fr.

Romuald D'Souza, a pioneer in the field of education. After his massive success in the establishment of Goa Institute of Management, he has now started this Postgraduate course in Wellness Counselling. This course looks at the person as a whole rather than fragmenting them into a bunch of symptoms and problems. Romuald summarises this course in simple words, "Much of the mental health providers to

day, seem to repair what is broken, when most of our lives are not broken." This course follows a trimester system and provides 90 credits in comparison to its other counterparts offering 80 credits. The course is not only focused on giving students the theoretical knowledge but also equipping them with practical and efficient skills to become better counsellors. We believe that learning can begin anytime anywhere as long as we keep our minds open. This is the major reason why we accept students from all educational backgrounds.
