Marriage and Couple Therapy |
This two-year program was established to provide clinicians with advanced training in the treatment of couples based on a synthesis of psychoanalytic and systemic theories. Course work and supervision provide a theoretical and technical foundation that prepares therapists to address a wide range of relationship issues. While emphasis is placed on the development of extensive clinical skills, the value of having a solid theoretical grounding is recognized as an important element of effective practice.
Admission Requirements
A doctoral or master’s degree in a mental health field is required. Applicants should submit an application and two letters of recommendation and will be contacted for personal interviews.
Program Requirements
- Satisfactory completion of course work
- 100 hours of supervision (group supervision may be chosen for up to 35 hours)
- 120 hours of couple treatment
- 100 hours of personal psychotherapy (50 hours must be concurrent with training)
- A graduation paper demonstrating the candidate’s integration of theory and technique
