The Alliance Graduate School of Counseling is a program of Nyack College School of Human Services offering a 66 credit Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling and a 61 credit Master of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy. AGSC also offers professionals who have already obtained a Master in Social Work, Psychology, or Counseling at another school the opportunity to return for additional classes towards a license, or simply a better understanding of the faith/counseling integration.

Upon completion of the program, candidates for the Master of Arts in both Mental Health Counseling and Marriage & Family degree, are expected to have acquired a strong academic course of study which is biblically based; attained a high level of knowledge regarding basic counseling skills commensurate with the degree offered; and to have acquired a working understanding of personal ethics and values essential for the practice of effective counseling.
