SCP 5800 - School Psychology Practice I

(1 Credit)

This is the first of a series of practicums designed to foster in the student the development of practical clinical skills. Through multiple application exercises, the student will learn most of the basic skills needed to conduct initial interviews and to begin a therapeutic intervention with children, adolescents, and their families. The practicum focuses on the development of an in-depth understanding of all the main components of the clinical interview. It develops full awareness of the different dynamics of the Patient-Clinician relationship. The ethical handling of records and of confidential information will be addressed throughout the semester. The students will master basic skills in the logical and sequential organization of clinical data so that the information obtained through interviews may become meaningful and useful for clinical intervention.
