Counseling Psychology
The Counseling Psychology major is designed to develop an individual’s capacities for work in the helping professions in both secular and sacred settings. Some will apply this degree to work within the mental health setting or utilize the relational skills gained in this program in a wide range of careers, including business, human services, and church/parachurch ministry. The major provides foundational studies in preparation for graduate school in the helping professions. Graduates who seek advanced education typically choose studies in psychology, counseling or social work.
