Different from pastoral counseling, this master's
program is designed for Christian men and women called specifically
to the field of vocational and clinical counseling. Whether you
picture yourself serving in the private sector, working for a state
agency or the local church, we recognize the challenges you will
face in these varied settings, which is why our distinguished counseling
track offers you biblical training that is integrated into traditional
coursework in the behavioral sciences.
By integrating theology with a regular master's
coursework, you will develop a broader understanding of counseling
from both a worldview and a biblical perspective. We recognize that
such an integrated approach to counseling training is rare, as are
the faculty who model and demonstrate their faith inside the classroom
through every discussion and conversation.
Further, the MA-MFT program meets the educational
requirements for licensure by the California Board of Behavioral
Sciences. Both dual-track programs prepare individuals for membership
in the American Association of Pastoral Counselors.
