Therapeutic Counselling Skills (HRM124)
The assessment of the socio-psychological condition in Singapore is a bleak one. Every one in four marriages ends up in divorce. There were 2000 teenage abortions in the past year among girls under 16 years of age. Mental problems have also risen sharply with many suffering from depression, anxiety disorders and schizophrenia and this includes children.

Our socio-psychological well-being is crucial as mental toughness is increasingly looked upon as a key component we need to develop in order to keep ahead in our highly competitive world. Counselling can help us to monitor and strengthen our mental tenacity and socio-psychological well-being.
