The curriculum provides a strong psychological foundation while allowing students to focus on specific clinical issues and varied populations, supported by faculty mentorship and hands-on clinical supervision.
This program delivers comprehensive education for advanced psychology studies, qualifying graduates to pursue licensure as Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs) in Florida.
