This program is intended for law students who are interested in becoming licensed mental health counselors in the State of Indiana or other states offering the licensure option. It combines the 90-credit JD with a 60-credit MA CMHC. This program serves students having a variety of goals related to the growing integration of law and psychology, including legal practice with a focus in mental health and social service (e.g., legal expert for mental health centers); mental health and social service administration where understanding of the law and ability to interact with legal systems is required (e.g., director of a social service agency); government employment dealing with regulatory procedures and laws that impact mental health and social service agencies, professionals, and clients; legal work for national, regional, or state mental health organizations and associations; understanding of issues pertinent to the practice and enhancement of mediation using standard counseling techniques; positions that, for whatever reason, require credibility within the mental health professions.
