1. When will you begin enrolling?

We are in the process of licensure with the board of higher education, and we expect to receive our licensure in the summer of 2025, to begin our first quarter in September.

2. Is this program accredited?

We have aligned our program to meet the strict accreditation standards of the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), a regional accrediting body registered with the Department of Education. We expect to be fully accredited before our first students graduate.

2. Does this degree prepare me for licensure?

This program is designed to meet the Board of Behavioral Sciences requirements for the California Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) license. While every state has unique licensure requirements, California's requirements often meet or exceed those of other states. We’ve designed our curriculum to meet the educational requirements for licensure in Canada, including Ontario, BC, Alberta, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and PEI.

Licensure requirements for state and international boards vary widely and are subject to change over time. While successful completion of the degree program offered by the Integrative Psychology Institute is a critical step toward meeting educational requirements for licensure, it does not guarantee that a state or international licensing board will approve a graduate’s application.

The U.S. Department of Education regulation 34 CFR 668.43(a)(5)(v) requires institutions to disclose whether a program meets the educational requirements for licensure or certification in each U.S. state.

Licensure application decisions are made solely at the discretion of each jurisdiction’s licensing board. While the Integrative Psychology Institute provides general guidance on licensure requirements, such guidance should not be interpreted as a guarantee of licensure approval.

For detailed licensure information, students are encouraged to review the resources provided in the official licensure disclosure document and contact the licensing boards for the specific state(s) or country where they plan to seek licensure.

Students are responsible for verifying that the program meets the educational requirements for licensure or certification in the location(s) where they intend to practice. While the Integrative Psychology Institute supports students pursuing licensure in states where the program is aligned with board requirements, the institute cannot guarantee licensure approval in states where alignment has not been established or for international licensure.

If you have questions about licensure, please refer to the provided resources or contact your intended jurisdiction’s licensing board for clarification.

3. Will I be able to transfer credits from previous training towards the degree?

Yes. All training hours from our Psychosomatic Practitioner training will go towards this degree. We also accept transfer credits from non-conventional education like yoga trainings, massage training, and other integrative health education. These will be assessed during your official enrollment process.

4. What are the prerequisites? Do I need a Bachelor’s degree?

You do not need a bachelor’s degree to take our courses. However, if you want to seek your Masters Degree through us, you do need a Bachelors degree in any subject to qualify. If you do not have a bachelor's degree, you can complete one concurrently while enrolled or take our coursework as professional certifications.

5. Does this program prepare me for licensure in Canada?

We’ve designed our curriculum to meet the educational requirements for licensure in Canada, including Ontario, BC, Alberta, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and PEI.
