“The two years I spent in the master's program at ICSW prepared me exceptionally well for my career in professional counseling and psychotherapy. Throughout my schooling, the faculty and staff provided a nurturing, enriching environment conducive to this field of study. They were at once accessible, empathic, and always open to discussion and consultation. Smaller classes enhanced individual learning and personalized each student’s experience through a heightened sense of investment and camaraderie. The coursework was multifaceted, balancing didactic and practical aspects, while simultaneously preparing students adequately for professional life.”
