My practicum professor added your video to our 1st week's module and I am so thankful! Love it. Thank you so much, it reassured me and gave me peace. Today is my 1st day of practicum.

[fativism]

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

[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.❤

[Naijakourtney]

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

[tyleredge]

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

[vitaliyapsychologist]

Thank you for such an informative content!

[stevelewis]

[kristengarcia]

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

[joseyjones-dfjv]

@keepongrowing this may seem like a odd question but could you do a video on what is the best verbiage and and things you should know going into your practicum site… idk about you but I feel like a lot of what I learned in my “core classes” was like in one ear out the other I’m a dad and I have a different job and my kids have their own stuff going on so I was seriously just doing what I had to do in the program then dealing with life and the other day I had an interview I felt so on the spot and couldn’t remember some of the things they were talking about and totally bombed the interview they literally said didn’t you learn that in school I said yes but that class was seriously 2 years ago anyway I have looked all over YouTube and there is nothing out there on this topic like a top 10 things you should know starting your internship or top 10 things you should know going into your internship interview that would be so helpful I’m a medical assistant and a personal trainer and I have kids so for me school is such a small portion of my life and I literally started this program in 2021 anyway that video would be super helpful

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

[rubymorrison]

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?

[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

[CurvyNerd]

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

[mighty_tiny_dynamite]

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

[KK-npvk]

How do people support themselves during a practicum?

[our.secret]

What’s the difference between internship and practicum?

[our.secret]

What are some examples of internship sites ?
