Do you know of any schools that offer counseling, psychology and nutrition, wellness?

I have a BA in Psych and Im looking for an accredited graduate program that offers a counseling and nutrition combination. Im looking towards more of a holistic program and approach. If i cant find one i’m just going to do my masters in MFT. I have been looking into Health Psychology, but don’t know a whole lot yet about the filed. I do plan to open a private practice in the long term that includes psychological counseling and an emphasis in good nutrition. I want to help people dealing with obesity and other food related health issues as well as Lifestyle education.

Sure

Cal Poly SLO
Cal Poly Pomona

CSU Fresno
CSU Long Beach
CSU LA [not a desirable campus]
CSU Northridge
CSU San Bernardino

UC-Berkeley
UC – Davis

Keep in mind that you will need a MSW or PhD to be a licensed counselor – perhaps a MSW/MS Nutrition would be a good program.

Now you need to do some research into each of these schools and see which has programs that you can amend to fit your goal – which is pretty cool. I sincerely wish you well and success.
