Possible Career Options

Graduates of our clinical psychology programs are prepared to obtain a license as a professional counselor or pursue a doctorate in clinical psychology. Demographic analyses show there is a shortage of licensed counselors and psychologists and although the local population is often not aware of the benefits that counseling can provide, there is a tremendous growth potential for the career paths of licensed counselors and psychologists.
