M.S.-Clinical Psychology, Studies in Psychological Trauma certificate

Format: Campus

Program Description:

The Masters of Science in Clinical Psychology (MSCP) program is designed to train students to conduct clinical assessment and treatment for adults and children. Through a combination of classroom and practicum-based learning, the program prepares students to pursue a limited license in psychology from the state of Michigan. In line with the mission of Madonna University, the program embodies the Judeo-Christian emphasis on respect for the individual and holistic living, and will train students to view people as complicated, multi-faceted individuals endowed with physical, spiritual, mental and emotional dimensions. The program will emphasize respect for human diversity, ethical decision making skills, and attention to underserved populations. While students will become familiar with a variety of perspectives, the predominant theoretical approach in the program is psychoanalytic. By studying contemporary psychoanalytic theory, students will develop appreciation for the unique and idiosyncratic elements that contribute to an individual's difficulties and be able to develop interventions accordingly.
