Overview

For your first three years at Mount Saint Mary College, your Mental Health Counseling - Human Services or Psychology course curriculum will look very similar to that of our other Psychology or Human Services majors. You’ll take your General Education and introductory courses in your major, followed by upper-level courses in the subject and a required internship. In your junior year, you will also apply for admission to the master’s program at Pace.

Following acceptance to the master’s program, in your fourth year at the Mount, you’ll also begin taking classes at Pace. These four, 3-credit classes will count as electives towards your undergraduate degree as well. At the end of your fourth year, you’ll graduate with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology or Human Services from the Mount and take courses exclusively at Pace University towards a master’s degree.

As with our traditional Psychology or Human Services majors, you’ll benefit from opportunities for applied research with professors, small class sizes that foster real world training, and giving back to the community both inside and outside the classroom.

Careers

After receiving a master’s degree in Counseling or Mental Health Counseling, you’ll be prepared to help others as a therapist or counselor for a variety of age groups and specialities (ie. family, marriage, addiction, etc.).
