Since 1987 the Caribbean Graduate School’s Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology programme has been training Christian counsellors for service in both the Church and the Caribbean society.

The counselling programme exhibits three dominant features: its theological underpinning, its theoretical knowledge and its hands-on experience.

The Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology was designed to be completed in two years and is a stepping stone to doctoral studies in Clinical and other specialized areas of Psychology.

The programme has evolved into one that is stronger due to curriculum revision to better prepare therapists for a changing world.
