HSV 594 - Clinical Field Practicum II

3 Credits

Clinical Field Practicum II is the second field experience course that promotes students' engagement in direct practice in counseling as they develop clinical counseling skills and learn to manage counseling sessions. As in the previous field experience, Clinical Field Practicum I (HSV 593), students are expected to use various clinical skills, techniques, theories, and interventions while demonstrating new learning not demonstrated in Clinical Field Practicum I. Students will apply the knowledge, skills, and dispositions acquired during prerequisite courses. This course has a required synchronous component that meets weekly for (2) hours and requires at least 100 supervised clock hours at an approved field placement consistent with the concentration. Students enrolled in the Professional Counseling Certificate are not eligible for enrollment into the field placement courses.
