I have had gracious experiences with the program faculty. They are patient, thoughtful, and excellent mentors. Their teachings and journeys are my foundation and inspiration. The courses are powerful. They’ll help you think about yourself, where you’re coming from with your own experiences, and how that can be effective towards helping anyone else in the room or the clients that you meet in the future."

The most impactful part of this program, for me, has been the people. The School of Education & Human Development at CU Denver attracts a certain caliber of students - my colleagues are the most authentic, passionate, hard-working individuals I have come to know. Together, we created a supportive, symbiotic social ecosystem that has allowed all of us to thrive during our academic journey together."

Graduate, MA in Couple and Family Therapy '23I have felt incredibly supported by the faculty here. I feel they truly value my learning and growth as a person and aspiring couples and family therapist. I really appreciate that the program is firmly grounded in social justice and systems theory and inclusive of students of all identities. I know this will especially prepare me, as I hope to work with clients from diverse backgrounds throughout my career. Furthermore, I have really enjoyed bonding with my cohort. I am continually inspired by my classmates and the thoughtful class discussions we are able to have in a safe and nonjudgmental space."
