Prerequisite(s): PC 437  and PC 462  and PC 464  and PC 486  and PC 486  and PY 4872  and PC 439 . PC 423  This is the first course in the Intermediate Practicum sequence. This course provides a small consultation group in which students examine relevant clinical and professional development issues that arise as the result of participation in intermediate practica. Students present practicum cases to gain mastery in the integration of theory and practice. Case conceptualizations consider client/therapist relationship, broad system issues (e.g., family, school, community, court, political, other treatment professionals/programs), and areas of diversity and difference (e.g., race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic status) as contextual variables. Presentations and discussions are designed to prepare students to successfully complete their Clinical Competency Exam (CCE) the following semester. (Pass/Fail) (3 credits)
