- Note: Argosy University emphasizes the importance of an applicant having met local licensure/certification requirements as a counselor/mental health provider. The EdD in Counseling Psychology does not lead to a licensure/credential as a provider of counseling services and should not be seen as preparation for entry-level practice.
