The Counseling Program offers a Master of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health
Counseling. This 60-hour track prepares graduates to counsel in clinical mental health
settings such as mental health centers, private counseling agencies, drug abuse treatment
centers, centers for counseling older adults, child protective services, child counseling
clinics, family counseling centers, pastoral counseling settings, private practice,
and business and industry. Students completing the entire sequence of course work
will meet the educational requirements for the Texas State License in Professional
Counseling. However, to obtain a License in Professional Counseling, the State of
Texas stipulates additional requirements such as passing the national counseling exam
and obtaining 3,000 clock hours of supervised clinical experience after the Masters
degree has been obtained.
