Clinical Mental Health Counseling
Nationally Accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP)
Master of Arts | Specialist in Education
The Clinical Mental Health Counseling master's and specialist degree programs prepare emerging professionals to provide clinical mental health services to individuals and groups in public (clinics, hospitals, school-based programs) and private practice.
Our graduates often obtain Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensure with a Mental Health Service Provider endorsement, which allows them to work with cases of a more diagnostic and clinical nature.
Licensure requires supervised clinical experience beyond the hours required for a degree.
