PSY 6520 - Clinical Practicum

3 Credit(s) | $12 Fee

The clinical practicum consists of both individual and group supervision of clinical activities in the SUU Program Training Clinic (e.g., psychotherapy, assessment) and CAPS, as well as providing students with opportunities to begin their own supervision efforts with junior students in Doctoral Program. Specifically, in their second year of the Program, students will begin seeing clients in the SUU Program Training Clinic and will participate in this course as they build a foundation of their clinical skill set. In the third year of the Program, students will see clients at SUU CAPS to continue to build clinical skills. The main goals of this course are to (a) help students continue conceptualizing the delivery of basic clinical services, (b) continue building the foundation they are using in their work with clients, and (c) to help students accept constructive feedback related to their own clinical efforts, and (d) begin providing supervision to junior members of the Vertical Team.
