The Master of Arts (MA) in Counseling Psychology/Marriage & Family Therapy program prepares students to practice and pursue licensure in California as marriage family therapists (MFTs).
The program prepares students to become skilled professionals capable of integrating classroom knowledge and practicum experiences into a wide variety of settings with diverse client populations. It introduces students to basic counseling skills and to applying individual, family, and group theory to client assessment and intervention. It emphasizes the development of professional attitudes, theoretical and factual knowledge, and assessment and intervention skills essential to marriage family counseling and individual counseling specialties. The program develops clinicians who are committed to the ethical provision of quality services.
Mission Statement
The MA in Counseling Psychology/Marriage & Family Therapy program is committed to preparing counselors and MFTs. The program embraces a range of relevant theory and techniques applicable in the three major areas of counseling psychology:
The remedial (assisting in remedying problems in living)
The preventive (anticipating, circumventing, and forestalling difficulties that may arise in the future)
The educative and developmental (discovering and developing potentialities).
That is
a) the focus is on normal individuals, and developmental life stages challenges,
b) a focus on assets, strengths, and positive mental health,
c) an emphasis on relatively brief interventions, and
d) an emphasis on context, socioculturalpolitical influences, diversity, and person- environment interactions rather than exclusive emphasis on the individual.
