Ringkasan program

This program is designed to prepare entry-level counselors to specialize in working with couples and families. The sequence of courses and supervised clinical training will assist professionals in qualifying for licensure as a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in many states, and in qualifying for membership in professional organizations such as the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT). Although this degree program satisfies the current academic and pre-degree training and education requirements for the Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), the Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and the Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the State of Illinois, students should be aware licensure requirements in some states may require them to take courses beyond those currently required by the Adler School. Students should consult state boards and licensure requirements in other jurisdictions and plan their curriculum accordingly to meet credentialing requirements in the jurisdiction in which they intend to practice following graduation. Students in this program complete course work and practicum experiences focused on the understanding and integration of individual life style dynamics with couple and family systems. Graduates of the program have a theoretical understanding of individual, couple, and family systems, including developmental issues and major variations; assessment skills in life style and systemic diagnosis; and intervention skills based upon major models of marital and family therapy, with the theory, values, and techniques of Alfred Adler as a foundation.
