Abstract

presence psychology counselling therapeutic presence effective teaching higher education pedagogical presence teacher presence
Presence is a term widely used within counselling and is viewed as a critical element in determining successful outcomes in therapy. Presence is also seen as an essential element in successful teaching. However, the models of presence offered in scholarly literature suggest that, while there are similarities, the concept of presence is viewed somewhat differently across professional groups. This thesis explores how 15 Australian master's level counselling educators conceptualise presence in the context of their teaching practice.
