Clinical Practicum

Clinical Practicum

Doctoral students in clinical psychology will provide a range of clinical services in the community, while receiving supervision and training under the guidance and expertise of licensed clinical psychologists. Students commit to training at a clinical practicum site for 750 hours, for 9-12 months. Clinical practicum is an opportunity for students to apply the clinical and theoretical knowledge acquired through rigorous coursework.

Potential clinical practicum sites are able to provide at least 1 hour of individual supervision each week by a licensed clinical psychologist. An additional hour of supervision each week can be provided by an allied mental health provider, in group or peer supervision. We seek to collaborate with community partners who can train students in Assessment and Therapy skills. The practicum must be a minimum of 750 hours total. Potential Psy.D. advanced practicum sites may offer a minimum of 600 hours total.
