History and Highlights - Department of Counseling

The Department of Counseling at Wake Forest University upholds the highest standards of the profession. While it is not eligible for consideration in the national rankings of counseling programs because it has no doctoral level program, it is widely regarded as one of the best master’s degree programs. Evidence to support that claim is multifaceted and includes accreditation decisions, awards received, faculty leadership and service, caliber and community involvement of graduate students, pass rate and scores on national licensing exams, reputation of graduates with employers and doctoral programs, and testimonials from other counselor educators.

Accreditation Decisions

The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) Board of Directors has awarded the WFU School Counseling and Clinical Mental Health Programs reaccreditation for eight years through October 2018. The WFU Program as one of the first to apply for reaccreditation under the new 2009 standards. The Department also successfully passed two strenuous reviews by accreditation entities NCATE, NCDPI and received good reviews from University Internal and External Review Boards. The External reviewer wrote in his report: “this counseling program is most likely the best master’s degree program in counseling in the United States.”

In January 2012, CACREP awarded the Part-Time, Online Delivery of the WFU School Counseling and Clinical Mental Health programs with accreditation through October 2018. In February 2012, the Commission on Colleges (COC) of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) approved the Part-Time, Online Delivery of the WFU School Counseling and Clinical Mental Health programs.

Pass Rate and Scores on National Counselor Exam

Since 1996 when the WFU Counseling Program became CACREP accredited and eligible to hold campus administrations of the National Counselor Exam, 98% of the graduating students sitting for the exam have passed it. The average composite scores are consistently higher the average composite scores for all CACREP approved programs.

Selected awards received by the program, faculty and students

The WFU Department of Counseling received the 2007 Outstanding Counselor Education Program Master Level from SACES (Southern Association of Counselor Educators and Supervisors). It received a similar award in 1998 from ACES, the national body of counselor educators and supervisors. It also won a Counselor Education Advocacy Award in 2008 in recognition of being the first program to take all of its students to Washington for ACA Legislative Day. Faculty members have received numerous awards. Most recently, at the 2011 ACA conference, Gladding received the David K. Brooks Distinguished Mentor Award. In 2010 Henderson was awarded ACA (American Counseling Association) Fellow status which is based on achievement in the areas of leadership and service to others. Gladding was awarded ACA fellow status in 2008. In 2010, Gladding received the Arthur A. Hitchcock Distinguished Professional Service Award from the ACA. In 2009 and in 2007, student members of the WFU Pi Alpha chapter of Chi Sigma Iota (international academic and professional counseling honor society) received the Outstanding Small Chapter Award.

Faculty in national and international leadership positions

Faculty are recognized national leaders in the counseling field. Gladding has served as president of many national counseling organizations including the ACA and is currently serving as president of the national association of state licensure boards and as chair of the ACA Foundation. This summer he shared his expertise in Turkey as a Fulbright Specialist Scholar and is among the top 1% most prolific writers in the counselor education field. Henderson has served as President of the Association for Counselor Supervision and Education (ACES) and of Chi Sigma Iota (International Counseling Academic and Professional Honor Society). Newsome has served as Treasurer of the Association for Assessment in Counseling and Education (AACE).

Faculty with a history of service

Wake Forest Counseling faculty were among those responding to crises that affect the mental health of our neighbors near and far. WFU counseling professors were among those who responded to the mental health needs of victims in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Our professors travelled twice to Virginia Tech University in the wake of campus shootings. WFU faculty served as part of the response team, offering advice, support and consultation for the campus community. Wake Forest University Counseling faculty could also be found in the nightmarish aftermath of 9/11, offering support services, crisis response and aid to the people impacted by the tragedy. WFU Counseling professors believe their expertise and knowledge serves more than students in the field of counseling, but that their experience must be used to serve the greater good and the greatest needs. The service to the international community continues today as Donna Henderson co-wrote the curriculum for the Mental Health Facilitators (MHF) Program of the National Board of Certified Counselor International (NBCC) and has facilitated training in Malaysia, Mexico, Bhutan and in the US.

Current Graduate Students

Tangible gifts of service: In the last three years, our students have served as interns and practicum students at more than sixty different community agencies, mental health facilities and schools in Forsyth County. This offers our graduates the opportunity for rich, diverse experiences that prepares them to enter the counseling field with confidence, having worked alongside other professional mental health providers. Our counseling students provide additional support within the community as volunteers. Wake Counseling students are ‘lunch buddies’ at Cook Elementary and pen-pals for elementary school students identified as in need of additional attention. Second-year graduate students developed a training series for nurses serving as mental health providers in Guyana. Our students serve the community in a multitude of other ways: at Camp Carousel meeting the needs of grieving children; at Carver High School College Application Day; giving candy to inner-city children during Project Pumpkin; facilitating support groups for Heartstrings Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support Group. The university itself offers WFU Counseling students opportunities for growth and job experience. Our students can be found working side by side with university professionals in offices all over campus. In exchange, the university receives excellent candidates for work within its many departments. Our students serve the university professionally in varied capacities while enrolled graduate school. Some students work in the financial aid department working with students and families; others serve as student tutors in the Athletic Department or as academic coaches in the Learning Assistance Center. Some of our students work in Career Services, at have served at the Trauma Center at WFUBMC and as hall directors for Residence Life and Housing.

Reputation of Graduates of the Program

Graduates of the program are sought after by employers and by doctoral programs. Approximately 20% of the members of the 2004-2011 graduating classes from the WFU Masters of Arts in Counseling Program pursued or are pursuing PhD’s. Graduates now serve as faculty at institutions such as Kent State, James Madison University, Rider University, Oakland University and UTSA.

Counseling Program Alumni.

Employment. The Wake Forest Counseling Program has produced 650 alumni since the first group graduated in 1969. These alumni personify the Wake Forest University motto “Pro-humanitate” as they work in numerous human services fields. 22% are working as mental health counselors in 19 states. 26% are working in K-12 schools the vast majority as school counselors but some as serve as teachers, principals, and other support personnel. Another 17% are in higher education working as professors, in student services including career and personal counselors, or currently pursuing doctoral degrees.

Their numbers include homemakers, business owners/CEO’s, lawyers, district court judges, and human resources officers. In the triad area, those counseling program alumni working “outside the field” include the director of the Food Bank, the chairman of the board of Reynolda House, the Executive Director of the Children’s Center, and trainers with the Center for Creative Leadership. 13% are retired or their employment status is not known.
