The field emphasizes the importance of tailoring therapeutic approaches to individual needs and cultural contexts. Additionally, students learn about the ethical considerations, therapeutic relationships, and the evolving landscape of mental health treatment. Through practical experiences and theoretical insights, students develop a nuanced understanding of the diverse therapeutic tools available to psychologists, enabling them to contribute meaningfully to the well-being of individuals and communities.
