CERTIFICATE IN SPIRITUALITY AND TRAUMA
It’s not too late to apply for the new Certificate in Spirituality and Trauma (CST) and begin classes in spring 2009.
The CTS offers two tracks. One concentration, the clinical sequence (18 credits), is for credentialed mental health practitioners (e.g., persons certified or licensed as professional counselors, psychologists, social workers, pastoral counselors, psychiatric nurses) who wish to deepen their skills by presenting trauma cases in a small group supervisory format.
The second concentration, the general sequence (18 credits), is a general concentration for participants from the mental health, pastoral counseling, pastoral care and ministry, education, health care, social work, and related helping professions that will enhance and enrich their work through the knowledge base afforded in the courses.
