What You Will Learn

Coursework focuses on theoretical orientation, ethical decision making, understanding mental health diagnosis, and the development of counseling micro-skills.

Career And Outcomes

Career Opportunities

Individuals with this training and national certification can work as mental health counselors for:

  • State Agencies (i.e., Mental Health Clinics)
  • Federal Agencies (i.e. Veteran’s Administration)
  • Private Practice – either working for an agency or, after fully licensed, in your own practice.
