Graduate Programs

You’re ready to dive deep and develop your calling

Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology

Live out your incarnational calling through counseling psychology

Our three-year Counseling Psychology graduate program is rooted in the belief that we are created, known, wounded, and healed in the context of relationship. Our Trinitarian Theology gives roots to our theory of change, and our psychodynamic methodology develops thoughtful, committed practitioners. You’ll engage your mind, body, and soul as you gain the knowledge, hands-on skill, and personal awareness needed to facilitate healing and transformation.

Center for Transforming Engagement

Equipping leaders and teams to awaken social change.

Leading communities in the midst of a changing and fragmenting culture can result in exhaustion, overwhelm, and disillusionment—or in shared hope, endless abundance, and regenerative action. We need to change the way we engage one another. We need transformation.
