Counseling and Counseling Psychology
Improve Mental Health
Through our student-centered graduate degree programs.
The Master of Science in Counseling, with options in Mental Health Counseling or School
Counseling, prepares professional counselors who can translate theory into effective
counseling practice. The Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology matches students' educational
interests while preparing counseling psychologists for practice in a variety of settings using
a scientist-practitioner model. Both programs are part of the School of Community
Health Sciences, Counseling and Counseling Psychology (HCCP).
