The Master of Science in Counseling program holds approval from the California State Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS), fulfilling all educational prerequisites for students pursuing licensure as either Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFT) or Licensed Professional Clinical Counselors (LPCC).
