Clinical Mental Health Counseling

Students pursuing careers in clinical mental health counseling should begin to explore relevant populations and settings when enrolled in HDC 501. Course assignments thereafter should be designed to develop knowledge and skills specific to the emphasis chosen. In order to develop and demonstrate skills unique to their selected concentration, clinical mental health counseling students must take HDC 542, HDC 544, and two elective courses within the department curriculum. Clinical experience placements for clinical mental health counseling students will take place in approved community agencies.
