Practicum & Internships | �ۿ۴�ý University

�ۿ۴�ý’s Counseling Center provides practicum opportunities for local students from doctoral programs in counseling and clinical psychology, and masters programs in counseling.

The emphasis of our training program is on developing the trainee's therapeutic skills and familiarizing them with a university counseling setting. The University Counseling Center provides free, confidential, short-term counseling to students currently enrolled at �ۿ۴�ý. We also offer psychiatry, consultation services, psycho-educational workshops, and outreach programming to the wider campus community.

Trainees are expected to spend 16+ hours per week at the counseling center and are expected to conduct intakes, provide individual counseling, participate in the planning and facilitation of outreach/psycho-educational programs, attend weekly staff meetings and group supervision, and receive at least one hour of individual supervision per week. Practicum students will also have opportunities to present formal case presentations and to lead a didactic training during the year. Additional training opportunities for group counseling and consultation services are also sometimes available.

Typical dates of training are from the end of August through early May.
