Program Concentrations
Clinical Mental Health Counseling:
Through a combination of classroom and field experiences, the cohort format provides students an opportunity to develop a unique and unified professional identity with an emphasis as a clinical mental health counselor or school counselor. A distinguishing feature supporting students’ professional development is our program’s emphasis on practice-based skills acquisition. Each student is engaged in four skills-based experiential courses. Under direct faculty supervision, the first practicum course affords students the opportunity to develop authentically in the use of self-as-counselor and to apply fundamental counseling skills in a program-selected practicum setting. Following the initial practicum experience, students continue to learn by doing through a second practicum experience and two internships. The second practicum and internships are field-based in the student’s concentration area.
School Counseling:
The school counseling program prepares students to become knowledgeable and ethical counseling professionals for employment as school counselors in public and private K-12 schools and related educational settings for diverse populations. We endorse a collaborative approach to school counseling with other school services. Clinical and course assignments are designed to provide tangible career benefits for students.
