Program Overview

The Masters of Science in Clinical/Counseling Psychology is designed to develop practical skills in counseling through supervised training and experience, as well as knowledge and understanding of relevant subject matter and research methodology. A unique aspect of the program is that students provide therapy in their first year of training. Towards that end, the M.S. program operates an on-campus psychology clinic for clinical training and research purposes. The program culminates with internship experience and a thesis or comprehensive examination in the second year. Students receive close individual mentoring as only 12 students are admitted each year. The program is designed to meet the basic educational requirements of the California Board of Behavioral Sciences, which specifies the educational qualifications for licensure as marriage and family therapist (MFT) in the state of California.
