Gain skills to help students navigate the complexities of life with wisdom and compassion. The professional school counselor today is a vital member of the educational team on each campus. The need for school counselors is on a rise and yet school counselors remain scarce (TCA Newsline, March 10, 2022). As described by the Texas Education Agency (TEA), school counselors provide a myriad of services to promote student wellness and support student development. The school counselor (TEC § 33.005 and § 33.006) coordinates services with the faculty, staff, students, parents, and community to plan, implement, and evaluate the Comprehensive School Counseling Program (CSCP). A Master of Education in Professional School Counseling from our University offers a uniquely holistic approach to preparing compassionate, skilled counselors who can address the academic, emotional, and spiritual needs of today’s students. Beyond providing the essential counseling competencies and educational foundations, our program integrates faith-based perspectives that enhance your ability to serve with purpose and integrity. Students benefit from small class sizes fostering meaningful connections with faculty mentors who are both accomplished professionals and committed Christians, ensuring that graduates emerge not only with the credentials required for licensure, but also with a deeper understanding of how to support the whole child in an increasingly complex world. Our Christ-centered approach to counselor education prepares you to become a beacon of hope and guidance in schools while maintaining the highest standards of professional excellence.
