Supervised Internship in Mental Health Counseling: Bridge Program
The Clinical Mental Health Counseling Internship, which meets the internship requirements for Mental Health Counseling Licensure in New York State, is a 600-hour, field-based experience in a community mental health setting. Experiences in the internship site include site-supervised individual and group counseling, client intake process, assessment, and treatment planning. The class also requires attendance at weekly university seminars, weekly group supervision by a university supervisor, and periodic individual supervision with a university-based supervisor. Seminar topics vary and include issues that are germane to the many challenging experiences of interns. This course is taken in the latter part of a student's program of study.
