APA Accredited Internship in Clinical and Counseling Psychology


 

Psychotherapy and Professional Development Seminar

2008-2009

Facilitator: Mark Perez-Lopez, Ph.D.

 

The Psychotherapy Seminar is designed to provide trainees with an organized, in-depth and developmentally appropriate learning opportunity. During the fall semester the content will focus mainly on psychotherapy topics especially relevant to practice in a large and diverse university counseling setting. Didactic in nature, the fall seminar series will focus on the application of critical content areas that meet the needs of highly trained doctoral interns. Topics include such offerings as ethics, eating disorders, and crisis intervention. A series on psychopharmacology is included as part of these seminar offerings.  During the spring semester, the content will blend therapeutic aspects with topics and presenters relevant to interns' career and life interests and is both didactic and experiential in nature with additional emphasis on professional development issues including exploring post-doctoral, licensing and early career issues. Readings and small group participation required.
