Sonoma State University’s beautiful 274-acre campus is located in Sonoma County wine country, an hour north of San Francisco. The campus offers the ideal setting for teaching and learning and access to a community of rich cultural, environmental, and recreational opportunities. Founded in 1960, SSU is one of the 22 campuses of the California State University System.

The 60-unit graduate program in counseling offers two M.A. degree options:
Clinical Mental Health Counseling (prepares students for the MFT and PCC licensures) and School Counseling (prepares students for the PPS credential). The two programs rely heavily on interpersonal skill training and field experience, appropriately balanced with academic and professionally oriented classes. Class size rarely exceeds 24, and there are currently about 80 majors.

The M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Sonoma State University is accredited by the Masters in Psychology and Counseling Accreditation Council (MPCAC) for the period of September, 2022 through September, 2030.The School Counseling program was most recently re-accredited by the California Commission on Teaching Credentialing in 2020.

The Counseling Program at Sonoma State University views multiculturalism as essential to the education, training, and development of aspiring counselors and, more generally, to the counseling profession. We embrace a broad definition of diversity that includes age, national origin, immigration status, race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, socioeconomic status, physical and mental abilities, and language, along with the various and complex ways these forms of diversity intersect.

We seek to foster an educational atmosphere that embraces and celebrates the diverse, intersecting identities of our students, faculty, clients, and community members, where all students feel safe to learn, dialogue, and provide feedback to each other and to faculty about multicultural issues.
