Spirit-filled Online Christian Counseling Degrees

Associate, Bachelor, Master and Doctorate

You are invited to experience the life-changing power of the voice of God, which is the central focus of the online Christian Counseling degree program offered by CLU. Our desire is to train up biblically-based, Spirit-anointed compassionate counselors who can discern the needs of the heart and usher in the grace of God to meet those needs; to train up people to counsel using the techniques and skills which Jesus Christ used.

The Counseling Curriculum at CLU has been absolutely priceless... Instead of getting caught in endless talks about ‘the problem’ you learn to minister to people on a heart-to-heart level and not a head-to-head level.

Christian Counseling Degrees Online and by Correspondence

The Christian Counseling courses offered by CLU may be applied as a major concentration toward any of the following online Christian Counseling Degrees:

Associate of Christian Counseling,
Bachelor of Christian Counseling,
Master of Christian Counseling or
Doctor of Christian Counseling.

Additional work is required when an undergraduate-level course is taken on the graduate level. Course substitutions and combining major concentrations are possible when working toward your Christian Counseling Degree online. Discuss these options with the Dean. The key is to follow God's passion within your heart. Students in the Master's and Doctoral programs earn approximately 30 credits for each degree from specific courses, and the remaining 10 credits by doing practical ministry work and earning "practica" credits.

Why This Isn't Just Another Christian Counseling Degree Program

You cannot begin to measure the effect of having God show up and minister His healing power directly to a broken heart. It goes so far beyond the mere "Christian principles" of counseling that you can attempt to apply by your own strength. The voice of the Lord Jesus Christ and His life-changing power are absolutely essential for the complete and lasting restoration of a deeply wounded heart.

Praise for CLU's Online Christian Counseling Degree Program

The Doctorate at CLU was the most important education I have ever had and will ever get. I received my B.A. in education and my M.A. in counseling from The University of Phoenix. My Doctorate with CLU is the most precious part of my educational journey. Glory be to God! My Doctorate from Walden University will allow me to be a certified instructor in the State of Arizona but nothing can ever take the place of my Doctorate from CLU. I will buy your books for my clients.

I just completed my Doctorate of Christian Counseling through Christian Leadership University. I can’t even begin to tell you how amazing this experience was for me in terms of healing, personal growth, and growing as close to God as I have ever been.

I’ve learned to discern the voice of God through dialoguing and dreams. To think, all of these years He may have been trying to speak to me and I didn’t know how to listen to Him. Hearing God and allowing Him to be the Wonderful Counselor He truly is has totally changed my life. Thank you to the Virklers and to Christian Leadership University for your amazing ministry. May God richly bless you.
