CERTIFICATE COURSE IN PERSONAL COUNSELLING

The certificate course on “Personal Counselling”, is modeled along the lines of the course which Father Joaquim Fuster designed. He was the Founder and Director of the Xavier Institute of Counselling. In 1978 Fr. Fuster, trained under Dr. Robert R. Carkhuff at the Carkhuff Institute of Human Technology, Massachusetts, USA.


Fr. Fuster, subsequently ran the programme successfully in St. Xavier’s College for many years, touching many lives.


We at St. Xavier’s College owe him much and it is with great pleasure we have revived Fr. Fuster’s Personal Counselling Course, from the academic year 2019-2020.
