Master of Science in Applied Behavior Analysis

at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology - Anaheim Campus USA

The M.S. in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) program provides students with a solid foundation in the principles of behavior analysis, equipping them with skills to bring about socially significant behavior change through data-based decision making and program development. Using modern technologies, students will be challenged to become leaders in the field of applied behavior analysis.

The Chicago School’s ABA master’s curriculum offered in Anaheim, California covers all four domains of behavior analysis:

• Applied behavior analysis
• Experimental analysis of behavior
• Service delivery
• Theory and philosophy (radical behaviorism)

The M.A. in Marriage, Couples, and Family Therapy program provides students seeking to become licensed marriage & family therapists in the state of California strong preparation in their development of diagnostic, therapeutic, and consultative skills from a systemic and relational context.

Students prepare to work with a variety of clinical populations, including:

• Individuals
• Couples
• Families
• Children
• Groups spanning the developmental spectrum
• Those with emotional, intellectual, and psychological conditions and disorders

Unlike many other forms of psychotherapy, marriage and family therapy has a primary focus on the inter-relationships between the self and others in the world, rather than only internal processes. Our M.A. in Marriage, Couples, and Family Therapy program exposes students to this systemic view and can even help them rethink their approach to classical theories from this more integrative perspective.
