The graduate-level counseling program at Carson-Newman provides high-caliber academic study along with firsthand experiences in clinical and school settings. Our local, state and national affiliates offer professional development, networking opportunities and a glimpse into real-world counseling scenarios.
We understand that students bring their own personal stories to the study of counseling, and this breadth of life experiences and worldviews enhances the diversity of our programs. Our collaborative learning environment fosters both academic and professional success and sets the stage for long-term relationships with faculty, counseling professionals and classmates.
Carson-Newman offers three specialization options:
Plans of study are developed to meet credentialing requirements. Licensure as a professional counselor or marriage and family therapist requires supervised counseling beyond the graduate degree and specific examinations required for the licensure area. All students are required to complete comprehensive examinations, and passing scores are required for the receipt of the master’s degree.
