The students first met with a professor of Clinical Psychology for a Q&A session. After that, they visited the counselling department and were given an in depth understanding about how various counseling sessions are run, and what the experience is like for patients. The students discovered the purpose of play therapy in the play therapy room and gained an understanding of the facilitations of the different techniques/tools that are used to help children. They also had a chance to attend a Psychology lecture class in university where they participated in an experiment and learned about the Facial Feedback Hypothesis on emotions. Mr. Karin then shared information about admission requirements to Chulalongkorn with the students.
