School Counseling

The Lewis & Clark College TSPC-approved competency-based School Counseling Program prepares candidates to deliver comprehensive school counseling programs based on The American School Counseling Association National Standards in the areas of academic, career, and personal/social development. Candidates develop close relationships with counselor-practitioners and faculty while learning to promote student, school, and community collaboration through resiliency and asset-based leadership and advocacy. As professional leaders, school counselors recognize education as a community endeavor requiring the best collaborative efforts of students, educators, and community members.

The School Counseling Program continually reviews and improves course offerings to reflect the changing expectations occurring at local, regional, and national levels while maintaining academic and philosophical integrity.

Lewis & Clark College's School Counseling Program offers both degree and licensure only for Initial Track I and Track II (non-teaching) candidates as well as the Continuing License. Candidates begin interning in the schools during their first semester of coursework, and this on-site involvement continues throughout the program.
