COU 645 Clinical Internship II

The intention of Clinical Internships is to provide students with focused skills development. Students learn and develop specific skills, competencies, and concepts that facilitate the development of rapport and foster growth: listening, responding, reflecting feelings, focusing, reflecting meaning, confronting, reframing, directing & when appropriate spiritual integration. Students are required to participate in on-campus supervision as well as on-site supervision. One does not replace the other. In order for a student to move successfully through COU605, and COU645 student must pass on-campus supervision including assignments and campus evaluation and receive an evaluation from internship site that demonstrates competency, growth and indicates no ethical or behavioral concerns. Only when those requirements are met will students receive credit for COU605, followed by COU645. Students are expected to complete 700 hours of internship (280 direct client-contact & 420 other hours) while enrolled in COU545, COU605, & COU645.
