[@fativism]

I really appreciate these videos! Almost done with my first term in my clinical mental health counseling program!

[@Keep_On_Growing]

Thank you so much! Congratulations!!🎉🎉🎉

[@Naijakourtney84]

I came across your video. I thank you. I start practicum in two weeks, this was very helpful

[@Jwcounseling]

I’m in my internship right now working primarily with Hispanic men on federal parole in Dinmit county. Great experience so far

[@niloofarojani]

Thank you Deyanira for your helpful tips!!! I'm going to be starting my first placement in September, and I already feel overwhelmed. I agree that even small acts of self care would contribute to so much.❤

[@tyleredge5349]

Starting to look for places for my practicum next semester. May or may not be having a small panic attack. This definitely helps though!

Same

@@Art_and_Soul_Studio making a small playlist of 100 vids ln practicum tips helps just a little 😅😅🤣

Thanks for suggesting it Kristen!! Really glad you liked it😊

Finding my own site is something that is making me feel so overwhelmed right now. 😢

[@Keep_On_Growing]

I’m so sorry it really is so overwhelming like why is this something we have to do😭

[@vitaliyapsychologist556]

Thank you for such an informative content!

[@kookiexhearts]

Thank you for all of your hard work!

[@rubymorrison1650]

I have to find my own places for my internship placement and I swear no matter how much information I give places they just keep saying "We would love to have you but what are you supposed to do" and I guess my question is what do you actually do at the internship?

[@CurvyNerd]

Great video. Did you bring any treatment planners. Etc.

[@Keep_On_Growing]

Thanks! No I didn’t, I learned about treatment planning from the other counselors and observed their different styles. But if anyone wants to focus more on treatment planning, that’s a great idea.😊

How do people support themselves during a practicum?

[@Keep_On_Growing]

Based off of my own personal experiences, some work 1-2 jobs, save up money from a previous job to sustain them through it, or are financially supported by loved ones.

[@cafewithmonica]

We’re you an RSA scholar because both my practicum and internship were paid 😳, but the kicker was that I was already working with them part-time so I think maybe that’s why but I did receive a stipend during internship

[@Keep_On_Growing]

Thank you for sharing that Monica! I wasn't an RSA scholar but super huge for others in grad school so they can look into it. I did apply for grants through my university so each semester they'd cover $1,000 of my tuition. I forgot about RSA so thank you for mentioning it!

[@mighty_tiny_dynamite1191]

How soon do I start asking about internships? Like.. first week of the program? Or is that WAY too soon?

[@Jwcounseling]

I would start looking around and fighting internship sites because I add to do an application and interview for mine which is time consuming

[@our.secret1130]

What’s the difference between internship and practicum?

[@Art_and_Soul_Studio]

For me it will be only 100 hours of practicum and 600 internship- practicum is more beginning to understand basics and internship is more rigorous with direct client contact

[@our.secret1130]

@@Art_and_Soul_Studio hi thanks for the info may I ask you what you’re studying and why you decided to pursue this field?
