CMHC has moved to Le Moyne College!
To meet the growing nationwide demand for competent and compassionate mental health counselors, beginning with the fall 2023 semester students can enroll in a master’s program that is new to Le Moyne. The two-year Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (MSCMHC) program was originally offered at Cazenovia College and transitioned to Le Moyne when Cazenovia permanently closed its doors in June 2023.
“This is a perfect fit for Le Moyne’s mission of meeting an important need in today’s society in a way that respects the dignity of all individuals,” said Margaret Wells, Ph.D., dean of the Purcell School of Professional Studies. She credited Associate Provost Mary Collins for her work with the New York State Education Department in coordinating a site visit and getting final approval for the program to be offered at Le Moyne.
MSCMHC faculty are:
Associate Professor Christina Bobesky, Ph.D. (Department Chair and Program Director)
Associate Professor Mary Handley, Ph.D., LMHC, CRC (Clinical Director for Internships and Practicums)
Professor of Practice Erica Randall, M.A., MSW, LCSW, LMFT
These Le Moyne faculty members were previously with Cazenovia College when the program was started there and will provide program continuity. The program’s move to Le Moyne is part of the College becoming a legacy institution for Cazenovia College.
The M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Le Moyne is designed to to meet the increasing demand for mental health counselors in our region and community
