COU 545 Practicum
Introduces students to the counseling environment and encourages them to apply what they are learning to individual clients under close supervision of faculty supervisors. Students may complete their practicum experience by seeing clients at the Multnomah University Counseling Center or in the community. Students will attempt to accrue at least 100 clock hours (including a minimum of 40 client contact hours over the semester). In supervision sessions, students learn to conceptualize individual cases, to consider ethical and legal implications, and to apply their foundational coursework.
Two credits.
