Description
This course is a forum for students to explore practicum-related experiences at an external practicum site, receiving consultation from faculty on topics such as professional development, legal and ethical considerations, case conceptualization, diagnosing, and assessment and intervention strategies, and serving as a source of support for students receiving clinical supervision. Direct observation is used at students� practicum sites to help them develop clinical skills. For Clinical Practicum III, students must be making progress towards 500 total hours of practicum experience, which are completed by the end of Clinical Practicum IV. Students focus on the competencies of reflective practice, self-assessment, and self-care throughout the semester. Prerequisite: PSY 750. (2 units; Fall)
