Practicum Training Program 2009-2010
|
Training Requirements
The 2009-2010 training program is designed for current graduate
students seeking intensive practice and supervision in family
therapy. It is particularly well-suited for students whose career
goals are to become licensed as professional counselors, marriage
and family therapists, or clinical social workers.
Supervision will be provided by
experienced, licensed mental health professionals. However, students
requiring supervision by a licensed psychologist cannot currently be
accommodated.
A minimum of two semesters training, running
from September to May, is required regardless of university program
requirements. For students requiring 3 semesters, training will run
from June through May.
Trainees are expected to be on site for a
minimum of 16 hours a week. From September to May, 2010, Wednesday
attendance from 12:00-8:00 pm for weekly seminar and clinical
team is mandatory. The remaining hours will be developed in
consultation with a supervisor.
Philosophy
The training program emphasizes
competency-based models of therapy based upon systems theory, social
constructivism, and multi-cultural perspectives. The training
experience is best suited to those who enjoy reading, self-directed
study, and risk-taking in exposing one’s work and ideas to
colleagues. Applicants familiar with family therapy models and
bilingual applicants are preferred.
