Wellness may be defined as the ability to develop one’s potentials, work productively and creatively, build strong and positive relationships with others, and be useful to one’s family and country.
The Wellness Counselling programme is designed to help people acquire the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need for maximising their potentials for successful academic progress, career development, and personal and social growth. Its purpose is to help people to discover the strengths and abilities they possess, and to build on them.
Counselling intervention aims at optimising a person’s normal functioning – personal and interpersonal – and at addressing dysfunctions only from a strengths-based perspective. It seeks to promote development across the lifespan while respecting the role of the environment in people’s lives. Its focus is less on remedial or therapeutic solutions and more on the identification and development of personal strengths. The objective is to help all persons to craft lives of wellness, health, and meaning.
This program aims at training counselling professionals committed to the growth and development of the people with whom they will work. The trainees are exposed to a wide range of counselling theories and intervention techniques as they develop their clinical skills and their own understanding about wellness and what is meant by optimal functioning.
