Meet the Faculty
Core Counselor Education Program Faculty
The Core Counselor Education Program Faculty are the team of professional counseling professors who determine the program curriculum and establish its policies and procedures. They are highly experienced licensed mental health practitioners who are committed to providing high-quality education and training to the next generation of behavioral health care providers. Together, they typically teach three-quarters of the program courses to each student cohort. Currently, a search is in progress to hire two new counselor educators who would work with Dr. del Rosario to serve as the Core Counseling Faculty.
