Thanks to my experience in the program, I feel confident to set off on my journey as a professional mental health counselor. Here, I had the opportunity to develop clinical skills for working with diverse clients. Instructors demonstrated authentic concern for me as a student and as a person. I’m grateful I chose this program to seek my training.
The flexibility of the Mental Health Counseling master's program made it possible for me to make this mid-career change to a professional field that directly helps people. The passion, care, and expertise of each faculty was demonstrated through their guidance and mentorship. I am graduating and entering the workforce confident in my clinical skill and abilities due to excellent instruction and classroom experiences I had.
I am sincerely appreciative of the enriching experience the M.S.Ed in Mental Health Counseling and Counselor Education program at Indiana University has offered me as a mature student earning my second graduate degree. The faculty's valuable support and genuine interest in our success has greatly exceeded my expectations as I embark on this new profession. Their expertise, coupled with the challenging yet practical coursework, ensures that we are well-equipped to positively impact our future counseling clients. In addition, the camaraderie and collaboration among my cohort-mates have fostered a nurturing learning environment, where we continuously learn from each other's diverse experiences and perspectives. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone seeking a comprehensive and transformative education in mental health counseling.
