MS in Pastoral Care & Counseling

Pursue your calling to help hurting individuals.

The Master of Science in Pastoral Care and Counseling will equip you with the knowledge and practical skills necessary to provide holistic support to hurting individuals within the Church and beyond.

​

Through engaging coursework, students will learn how to utilize theological and clinical principles to promote spiritual, emotional, physical, and mental wholeness. This online program is ideal for ministry professionals and lay leaders in the Church and Christian agencies who strive to serve others through faith-based care and counseling.

Note: Although the completion of this program may provide the credentials for career advancement within your church or private sector, it does not lead to state licensure as a clinical professional. Students are responsible for understanding their state's pastoral counseling rules/laws regarding a dispensation or exemption for clergy or those operating under the umbrella of a cognizable denomination or a church.
