There’s something special about welcoming our alumni home. ❤️🤍

Last weekend, ECP graduates returned to campus as part of Santa Clara University’s Grand Reunion. Together, we revisited old memories, reconnected with friends and colleagues, and celebrated the relationships that make the ECP community so meaningful.

Thank you to everyone who joined us! We loved hearing where life has taken you and seeing so many familiar faces back on campus.

Take a look through the photos, and if you attended, let us know your favorite moment from the weekend. ✨

After years of planning, ECP’s first Counseling Psychology study abroad experience became a reality this summer. 🌏

Students and faculty traveled to Thailand to learn how culture can shape our understanding of mental health, well-being, community, and care. Through cultural immersion, conversations with Buddhist monks, and lessons in psychology and mindfulness from Thailand’s best scholars, students gained perspectives that extended far beyond the classroom.

We’re so grateful to Chulalongkorn University’s Faculty of Psychology for partnering with us to bring this program to life!

These experiences help prepare future therapists to approach their work with greater curiosity, cultural awareness, and respect for the people and communities they will serve.

We’re proud to celebrate this milestone and excited to continue expanding global learning opportunities for ECP students.

📹 Watch the video for a closer look at their experience in Thailand. ❤️

Last week, our community came together for a day centered on learning, connection, and q***r joy. 🏳️‍🌈

The 2026 LGBTQ+ Mental Health Affirming Care Symposium brought clinicians, advocates, performers, students, and community members to Santa Clara University for meaningful conversations about affirming mental health care.

Throughout the day, we explored everything from drama therapy and q***r and trans AAPI mental health to Black q***r joy in medicine, gender euphoria, and the power of creative expression.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, shared their experiences, and helped make the symposium such a welcoming and joyful space. Take a look through the photos for a few highlights from the day! ❤️
