Behavioural Health Counselling

We are pleased to announce the launch of the new Behavioural Health discipline within the College of Medicine and Public Health. Our new name and our new focus brings together our Chronic Condition Management (CCM) and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) expertise.

These Behavioural Health courses provide graduates with contemporary socio-ecological perspectives informing the relationship between behaviours and health. You will develop skills to support the behavioural health of individuals and populations to improve physical and mental health outcomes.

A postgraduate Behavioural Health degree could give you the chance to influence health outcomes at the individual, institution and policy level. Your career could help drive positive, sustainable health behaviours.    

These provide graduates with the skills in person-centred behavioural health counselling to improve health outcomes for individuals and populations. The Graduate Diploma includes the option to register as a nationally accredited behavioural health coach.

For emerging health professionals:

For established Health professions behavioural health is an integral part of many health professions (e.g. Allied Health professionals, Physiotherapists, Dietitians, Nurses, Social Workers). This degree extends your skills in these areas and enables you to take the next step in your career.
