We do not use traditional entry metrics like grades or the prestige of an undergraduate institution. Instead, we look for candidates who demonstrate the qualities that will make them exceptional future therapists, including emotional self-awareness, humility, curiosity, and a genuine desire to serve.

We seek students who are willing to explore their own patterns, show up authentically in relationships, and take responsibility for their growth. Rather than looking for people who have it all figured out, we look for those who are asking honest questions about how to live well—students who can hold complexity, learn from discomfort, and commit to the inner work that builds real therapeutic presence.

We believe great therapists are not molded solely through academics, but through life experience, embodied practice, and relational depth. Our admissions process is designed to identify individuals who are ready to step into this kind of transformative journey.

If you are sincerely drawn to the human condition, willing to do the work on yourself first, and excited to join a community that values vulnerability as much as skill, you will likely feel at home here.
