Students and Alumni Stories

Our students and alumni talk about their experience in the program and how it has affected their lives.


"The psychology department here at Bay Path has surpassed all my expectations. This department is supportive, full of knowledge, and they have pushed me in ways that I did not think is was possible."
- Mari Santiago-Porter, G'20 Clinician, Brightside for Families & Children | MS in CMHC 


"The MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a concentration in Drug & Alcohol Counseling allowed me to secure and excel in an internship at Megan's House. My successful internship then opened the door for a clinical position there. I truly believe that this degree will continue to open doors for me within the mental health counseling field. With a long-term goal of providing mental health counseling for the veteran population, I have no doubt that Bay Path's CMHC program will pave the way for the achievement of that goal!" - Meaghan Fay, G'18 Clinician, Megan's House


"This program has helped me with my career goals. It helped me get an internship and the job I have now." - Lindsay Thompson, G'18 Clinician, Behavioral Health Network


"Not only do you learn in the classroom, but the experiences in practicum and internship are priceless. The professors are very empathetic and if you are struggling in any way, they will go out of their way to make sure you are helped and feel supported. My time at Bay Path was an experience that I would never forget." 
- Eileen Medina, G'17  Clinician, Community Child Guidance Clinic


"I learned a lot from my classmates. They brought their own experiences within the different areas in which they work in the field.  I loved how we were able to have great discussions within the courses and working in groups with new people and learn their perspectives on certain situations."
- Day’sha Ramsey, G'18 Recovery Counselor, Servicenet
