Graduates possess the knowledge, skills, and abilities to provide comprehensive responses to the psychotherapeutic needs of their clients.
Furthermore, graduates apply theoretical and practical knowledge of contemporary psychotherapeutic approaches to develop case formulations that consider clients’ individual, interpersonal, and environmental characteristics. This allows graduates to design and implement psychotherapeutic interventions that address presenting concerns. Graduates are also able to systematize and evaluate the outcomes of their interventions, generate clinical evidence, and reflect critically on their professional practice. In addition, graduates demonstrate ethics and assertive communication in interactions with clients and collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary teams to provide integrated care.
Ultimately, graduates are expected to practice in national and international settings, acting with ethics, creativity, proactiveness, innovation, and responsibility. Graduates uphold the current legal framework, contribute to society, and are committed to the promotion of mental health and well-being.
