On Campus
This program offers maximum flexibility for those seeking a career in behavioral health. This dual degree program enables students to earn two master's degrees and a certificate in one 121 quarter unit program. Receiving two degrees permits the graduate to sit for licenses (in California) for both a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (issued through the California Board of Behavioral Sciences). The MFT program is nationally accredited through the Commission on Accreditation for Marriage and Family Therapy Education (COAMFTE). The included Drug and Alcohol Counseling certificate allows students to apply for three separate national certificates in substance abuse counseling. This dual degree program consists of only 31 units beyond the 90-unit master's degree, and may be completed in three years of full-time study. Applicants may apply for admission in fall, winter, spring, or summer. Clinical placements are available within the Loma Linda University Health care system as well as local community agencies and organizations. The program is offered within a Christian environment emphasizing integrated learning and compassionate whole person care.
Applicants must meet the admission requirements for each master's program as well as the Drug and Alcohol Counseling certificate program, including a Bachelor's degree from an accredited institution, GPA of 3.0 or above, and three letters of recommendation. To begin the process, applicants should submit applications for the MS in Counseling and MS in Marital and Family Therapy. Once admitted into both of those programs, applicants will be directed to submit an application to the Drug and Alcohol Counseling certificate.
Graduates may work in for-profit and private non-profit and public settings, including county departments of mental health, departments of child and family services (as well as other governmental agencies) hospitals (such as the Loma Linda University health care system), and private practice settings.
