Forensic Mental Health

Course description

In this course, students consider best practices in the assessment and treatment of forensic mental health individuals who may find themselves before the courts for a variety of reasons. Working to build clinical competencies, students consider the assessment and planning of care for clients within the justice system, and develop treatment approaches that are clinically sound and ethically responsible.

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
