Within the Graduate Counseling Program, we have three areas in which to concentrate: Community Counseling, Marriage and Family Counseling, and School Counseling. Our program nurtures students and helps them to become self-developing, competent professionals who will be an asset to the community, both personally and professionally. Through teaching, research, and public service, these programs foster not just intellectual learning, but also encourage the students to develop themselves spiritually, culturally and with a sense of responsibility. Our alumni serve as professional counselors in a wide variety of fields throughout Louisiana and are known for their knowledge, skills and compassion.
