The College of Counseling (COC) has designed the Master of Arts in Counseling (M.A. in Counseling) program to facilitate the growth of Christian students into well-qualified, healthy clinical mental health counselors. The training model focuses on the heart (personal and spiritual development), the head (professional knowledge and research), and the hands (effective interpersonal and clinical skills).
