Hello, my name is Kéliane. I have been studying in this program for 2 years now. I’m making this glossary so that you know more about this choice of study so that you can understand what we do in special care counselling. This glossary is for anyone who wants to learn more about the terms of a special care counselling. He’s gonna have 20 words in that glossary.
