Doutorado em Educação de Conselheiros

The doctoral degree in Counselor Education and Supervision (CES) prepares students for service as leaders in clinical practice, supervision, administration, education, and research within the counseling profession. Regional and national data indicate a need for leadership in these areas to support the growing number of mental health professionals providing services.

The CES program emphasizes the importance of peer and faculty mentoring as part of the educational experience, providing a personalized learning environment where students can support their professional development. Mentorship is a critical component of doctoral training, allowing students to develop important connections within the counseling community while building the confidence to fulfill their potential as future leaders in the profession. This mentoring model provides the space necessary for a rigorous learning environment that includes the support necessary for success. The CES program builds upon students' already existing clinical skills, expanding their knowledge and preparing them for work as leaders in mental health and academic settings. Students will receive extensive training in areas that are typically not emphasized in counselor education programs

Lindsey Wilson College was founded in 1903 as Lindsey Wilson Training School by the Louisville Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. The school was named in memory of Lindsey Wilson, the deceased nephew, and stepson of Mrs. Catherine Wilson of Louisville, Kentucky. (Today, Lindsey Wilson College continues its affiliation with the Kentucky Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church.)

Lindsey Wilson’s A.P. White Campus is located on more than 200 partially wooded acres on a hilltop in Columbia, which is in the Kentucky Heartland – a region synonymous with outdoor recreation, camping, boating, and hiking.
