The MNU Graduate Sexual Addictions Treatment Provider (SATP) certificate is designed to train clinicians, ministers, and lay leaders from a faith-based perspective.
The latest research on the prevalence of those who struggle with sexual addictions reveals that around 37 million people struggle today with issues surrounding this crippling addiction. Fifteen years ago, therapists rarely talked about having to address sexual addictions within their practice. With the emergence of the Internet and other easily accessible images and experiences, therapists are now talking about 50% of their clientele presenting with sexual addictions as either a primary or secondary issue.
Traditional therapy training programs have not been equipped with the resources to prepare students for effective work with this population. With the SATP certificate from MidAmerica Nazarene University, you can become certified to help these people.
This program has been ranked as one of the top graduate certificates in counseling programs by Counseling Psychology for 2023.
The program is currently under the direction of Dr. Todd Bowman. Dr. Bowman is a Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist (CSAT) and trained directly under renowned leaders in the field of sex addiction treatment including Dr. Patrick Carnes, Dr. Mark Laaser, Dr. Stefanie Carnes, Marnie Ferree, and others.
