A graduate program in existential phenomenological psychology.Seattle U's MAP trains therapists
The MAP program was founded in 1980 and has an excellent reputation in the mental health community. Moreover, it has an international reputation as a center for phenomenological scholarship, a good deal of which results from the collaborative work of faculty, students, and alumni. The program is generally completed as a two-year full-time course of study. The program offers a broad foundation in p
sychology, philosophy, and psychopathology. Through exploring these in relation to psychotherapy and counseling, students come to appreciate the significance of therapeutic attitude and presence. Most fundamentally, we place a strong emphasis on the relational and ethical dimensions of psychotherapy.
