CMHC Information Session (In-Person)
6:30 pm-8 pm
Learn more about Parkside's Clinical Mental Health Counseling program! This program is housed within the psychology department at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside and serves as the pre-credential educational requirement for licensure as a professional counselor in the state of Wisconsin.
This 60-credit hour counseling program supports students’ development of the knowledge and skills needed for practice as clinical mental health counselors by adhering to the core general counseling competencies outlined by the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC). The program is distinguishable by low student/faculty ratios, which offer students opportunities for supervision, consultation, and mentorship. Students will be able to complete the program in two-and-a-half years if they follow the recommended semester plan.
Learn how to prepare for a career as a licensed professional counselor. Program faculty will share information about: career options, cohort benefits, practicums and internships, as well as how to apply. Take this opportunity to find out if this is a career for you!
