Internship handbook (Table of Contents) (Online Forms) |
Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology ("MAC") The
MAC Internship Handbook:
We certainly wish to recognize and express appreciation for the service you render to the MAC students and, in the long-run, to the field of counseling psychology. We recognize that your involvement is strictly voluntary and we in the MAC faculty wish to sincerely thank you for your help! You are an important element in the training of tomorrow's therapists and mental health professionals. Please feel free to surf through the MAC web page -- particularly the section dealing with the internship experience, to learn more about what is expected of all MAC graduate students who are pursuing further training through an off-campus experience.The previous topic pointed out the characteristics expected of an "ideal" supervisor. It is worth pointing out to you, the On-site Supervisor, that not all interns are the same! While the quality of the majority of MAC students is impressive, there is obvious variability in the students' backgrounds, energy levels, intelligence, motivation, and social skills.
The MAC Program attempts to prepare students as well as possible for the internship experience, but not all students fit into all agencies and programs smoothly. If the student and the On-site Supervisor have difficulty getting beyond the initial transition problems, please let the Internship Faculty know as soon as possible!
