2010 has been a busy year for students in EMU’s MA in Counseling program<\/a>. <\/p>\n

In February a team of four students (Zachary Taylor, Erin Constable, Thomas Smith and Tara Kreider) received a first-place award in the annual national Graduate Student Ethics Competition<\/a> sponsored by the American Counseling Association (ACA), Alexandria, Va.<\/a> <\/p>\n

Later in the month, five other MA in Counseling students presented findings at the Virginia Association of Counselor Educators and Supervisors (VACES) conference in Williamsburg, Va. <\/p>\n

‘Transcending Trauma’<\/h3>\n

EMU graduate counseling students Margaret Johnson, April Gunderson, Erica Yutzy and Robin Zook were among the students who presented findings at VACES in February 2010.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

Margaret Johnson, April Gunderson, Erica Yutzy and Robin Zook presented "Transcendence from Trauma: The Inspirational Phenomena of Post-traumatic Growth," their focused study of trauma and the profound growth which can follow. <\/p>\n

The moving, visually rich work was the product of months of study and preparation by the students.<\/p>\n

‘Transforming Adolescents’<\/h3>\n

Grace Kolman also presented her work on "Transforming Adolescents with Conduct Disorder to Volunteers using Existential Therapy" at the VACES conference. <\/p>\n

"Existential therapy offers important insights on how to treat adolescents with conduct disorder," Kolman says. <\/p>\n

"I presented theory on this subject and an illustration on how it’s possible to lead a group of trouble teenagers to volunteerism using existential approach. The life stories presented in this conference are based on my experience working with these youths in Rondonia, Brazil." <\/p>\n

About the MA in Counseling program<\/h3>\n

EMU has more than 35 students currently enrolled in its MA in counseling program<\/a>, which is accredited by The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP). The program offers a 60-semester hour, CACREP-approved track that prepares students for clinical practice as a licensed professional counselor and a dual degree that enables a student to earn both a master of divinity and an MA in counseling degree in less time than if both were pursued separately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
