School of Education - Counseling

The Professional and School Counseling curriculum at Lindenwood University emphasizes both theoretical and technical knowledge and then relates these in to practice. Utilizing this framework, the mission is to prepare ethical, reflective practitioners to work in school and mental health settings with individuals groups and families. The program provides the academic credentials for graduates to be licensed as Professional Counselors and/or to be certified as School Counselors.

Program Description
The programs are intensive and comprehensive, requiring 48-57 semester hours of course work, education courses, when applicable, and applied experience. Students who take classes year-round can complete most coursework in eight terms. Additional time is required for education courses, when applicable, and to complete internship or thesis requirements. Qualified graduates interested in further training are well equipped to pursue doctoral studies at other institutions.

Important Announcement for School Counselor Certification Applicants!!
Jan Harcourt, Supervisor of Educator Certification at DESE, has informed Lindenwood Certification Officer, Amy Fasnut that several applications for certification have been held up due to the need for a recent background check. DESE must obtain with your application packet the proper background check that has been done within six months of the time of application for certification. The company that provides their required background check is called IBT (formerly Identix). They can be reached via phone at 1-866-522-7067 or you can obtain their information form by clicking here. School counselor candidates should call to make an appointment to get their fingerprints scanned for the background clearance. We regret any inconvenience or delay this may cause you in your certification process. For more information, call Dr. Munro or Dr. Karraker.
