MA/MS in Clinical, Counseling and Applied Psychology

This clinical mental health counseling master's trains students to provide counseling in private practice, prisons and jails, hospitals, addiction recovery programs and community agencies. Weekly synchronous online classes explore how faith fits within ethical professional practice. Students can finish in nine semesters, and an accelerated seven-semester plan is available to qualified summer starters. Students attend an orientation and short on-campus residencies in the summer during the first two years. Graduates gain knowledge relevant to licensing exams, which students may sit before graduating. The program is CACREP accredited. Prospective students can contact the admissions or enrollment staff to ask about entry steps, scheduling and available support, and can apply through the institution website. The program is offered by a Christian institution and is taught with ministry and service in view, so students are encouraged to link their study to their calling.
