The Healthcare Professionals Certificate Training Program will prepare trainees to address the unmet, co-occurring mental health and substance use disorder needs of underserved and vulnerable individuals in comprehensive health centers, specifically children, adolescents, and the emerging adult population in the Middle Tennessee region. Participants in the program will complete a one-year, three-course substance addiction specialization curriculum within a CACREP-accredited clinical mental health counseling program.  Additionally, participants will enroll in two group supervision courses led by an instructor, occurring in the fall and summer semesters. This specialized program is an extension of the Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling Addiction Specialization.  Students’ transcripts will reflect the completion of the certificate.
