“During my time at Suffolk, I loved walking right from the classroom to the city. It was so easy to find something to do before or after class from restaurants to concerts. Dr. Medvide, Dr. Shumaker, and Dr. Smolinski all teach not just from textbooks, but from real-life experience in the field. It really was such an advantage for our internships to have such solid guidance. I can’t thank them enough for the support!”

“My internship at the Suffolk County House of Corrections has been the most compelling experience thus far. It’s a remarkable feeling when you’re finally able to do the work you’ve been training to do. I enjoy this internship because it’s dynamic. It’s a combination of crisis counseling and individual therapy aimed at helping people during what might be the most stressful point of their lives.”

“Pursuing graduate school is a big decision and being a person of color, I wanted to be in a university that would be a good fit for me. I chose Suffolk University for several reasons. First, the importance that the university gives to advocacy and social justice along with its focus on diversity, equity, and inclusivity. Second, the efforts taken to ensure that students get a well-rounded and holistic learning experience. This happens in terms of developing the course curriculum, the guidance and mentoring that students get from their professors, the cohort size, and the career development and professional development resources that are available to students.”

“After visiting Suffolk and seeing the campus, it piqued my interest in their mental health counseling program even more. I loved the small cohort size, as well as the appeal of the curriculum; with a master’s in science, they put a focus on using up-to-date research and evidence-based treatments in our work.”
