In addition to traditional counseling theory and practice, our courses are developed to help address the diverse academic, career, and social/emotional needs of P-12 youth. We encourage students to bring their unique community perspectives into the classroom. Students share the needs of their community in courses like:

  • Diversity: Multicultural Counseling and Psychosocial Issues
  • Mental Health & Substance Use
  • Counseling Children, Adolescents and the Family
  • Lifespan Development

Our program is designed to adhere to the standards set by the Counsel for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs1 (CACREP) and fulfills the academic eligibility requirements for Colorado state licensure as a school counselor.
