• Assessment and Treatment Interventions for High-Risk Families
• Assessment and Treatment Interventions for Substance Use Disorders
• Synthesizing Psychotherapy (Integration)

The program also provides its graduates with clinical and theoretical training in two major orientations – Psychodynamic and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy.
