Practicum Training Program 2010-2011

Training Requirements

The 2010-2011 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, 2011, 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.
