The Program
We are partnered with Yorkville University and Acadia University as a practicum site for their Masters Level counselling students. Our experienced Registered Counselling Therapists are approved as supervisors under each of the Universities.
At the end of their studies, counselling students are required to complete a practicum to accumulate a set number of counselling hours with clients, over several months, as a requirement of completing their degree and becoming Registered Counselling Therapists in Nova Scotia.
When counselling students enter the practicum portion of their studies, they are called ‘interns’ and are highly qualified and educated.
They work under direct supervision of their onsite practicum supervisor; interns receive weekly one-on-one supervision, regular group supervision, and regular peer clinical supervision.
Clients receive exceptional support in this model; they receive direct support from their Counselling Therapist Intern, and indirect support from the Intern’s supervisor and peer group supervision as a result of these supervision experiences.
Sessions are 50 minutes in duration, option for in-person, video or phone
