COUNSELING PSYCHOLOGY/COUNSELING
Programs offered in counseling and counseling psychology
are characterized by intensive clinical supervision by faculty
members in an on-campus clinic, by strengths in the areas
of family systems and health psychology, and by the rich multi-ethnic
composition of the community, students and clients.
In addition to the formal academic requirements, the School
of Education requires its student to demonstrate personal
qualities that, in the judgment of the faculty, would permit
them to function effectively in their professional roles.
The School of Education reserves the right to dismiss any
student who is academically or personally unable to carry
out the professional responsibilities of the respective professions
for which they are being trained. Conduct which may be considered
unprofessional may include dishonesty, cheating, plagiarism,
sexual harassment, discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity,
religion, or sexual orientation, and inappropriate interpersonal
behavior. It is up to all students to fulfill their responsibilities
in a timely and professional manner, to represent themselves
and the University with honesty, and to treat others with
dignity and respect.

• Marriage and Family Therapy – This
program provides the academic and pre-degree supervision
requirements for licensing as a Marriage and Family Therapist
in the State of Florida and also may lead to qualification
for certification by the American Association of Marriage
and Family Therapy.
