UW MA Applied Child & Adolescent Psychology Program

[PSYCFWD]

I am excited to share a master’s level educational opportunity that may be of interest to your students: The Master of Arts in Applied Child & Adolescent Psychology: Prevention & Treatment through the University of Washington’s Department of Psychology. 

Our 15-month MA program prepares students for careers providing clinical prevention and intervention services to children and adolescents and serves as a pathway to becoming a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Washington. 

Students are trained in the use of evidence-based treatment programs for improving children’s mental health outcomes, and through internships, they gain real-world experience observing and practicing treatment models in local clinical mental health settings. Learning and training under nationally recognized experts in child psychology affiliated with our Departments of Psychology, Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, and our Center for Child & Family Well-Being, our program graduates go on to work in a wide range of settings including schools, community organizations, and health care facilities.  

Our applications open on July 1st, and we would love to share information with students in your program! I have attached a one-page flyer for easy information sharing.  

I would also welcome the opportunity to connect with you or your students to share more information. Please let me know if you have any upcoming opportunities or availability to do so! 

Gratefully,
