The focused curriculum in the MS in Mental Health Counseling degree program emphasizes the treatment of addictions and child and adolescent counseling.
You’ll complete a 100-hour practicum and a 600-hour internship at a facility that is convenient to you and graduate prepared to pursue dual-licensure in mental health counseling and clinical addictions counseling. Our coursework directly prepares you for licensure in Indiana. Requirements vary by state.
For Indiana residents, we have a partnership with a large mental health agency, which provides students the opportunity to earn a $5,000 stipend during an internship, receive advanced training from the agency, and be guaranteed an employment interview upon graduation.
We expect engagement via class meetings and approximately nine hours of coursework per week for each three-credit course.
