Bachelor of Science in Psychology Counseling/Clinical Psychology Concentration

Enhance your understanding of two related areas of psychology with the counseling/clinical psychology concentration for Methodist University’s online BS in Psychology. The concentration allows you to customize your degree to better suit your career goals.

Counseling psychology applies psychology to common problems in living, such as in choosing a career or resolving issues in a personal relationship. Clinical psychology applies psychology not only to common problems in living, but also to psychological disorders, such as a phobia or clinical depression. Methodist University brings the two fields together in one concentration to give you the knowledge needed to identify, better understand, and solve the problems that people face.

The skills you gain in the concentration span diagnosis, clinical interview procedures, behavior analysis, and more. As a result, you can enter a wide range of career opportunities, including working in the autism and substance abuse treatment fields, as well as opportunities in school systems and with community mental health services. It’s also a great foundation for graduate work in counseling, clinical mental health, and other psychological disciplines.
