Supervision is provided weekly with a supervisor for all experiences. The state of the art Center for Individual, Couple and Family Counseling provides students with the ability to videotape all sessions and have live supervision with the use of one-way mirrors, making supervision more effective. The areas of concentration offered are Marriage and Family Therapy, Community Counseling and Addictions. The Marriage and Family Therapy licensing exam is offered in May and November of each year and should be taken as soon as the student is eligible. If the student is taking classes full time including summer, both programs, the Marriage and Family Therapy and Community program should take two and a half years.
Students have up to six years to finish the program.
