@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 TH-cam 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
@@joseyjones-df7jv Thank you for requesting this and for sharing, I’m saving it to make a video because this is so relatable. It’s so hard when our programs expect full time commitment like if we don’t have other responsibilities outside of school, the stress can be overwhelming.
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.❤
Based off of my own personal experiences, some work 1-2 jobs, save up money from a previous job to sustain them through it, or are financially supported by loved ones.
Thanks! No I didn’t, I learned about treatment planning from the other counselors and observed their different styles. But if anyone wants to focus more on treatment planning, that’s a great idea.😊
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?
For me it will be only 100 hours of practicum and 600 internship- practicum is more beginning to understand basics and internship is more rigorous with direct client contact

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
Thank you for sharing that Monica! I wasn't an RSA scholar but super huge for others in grad school so they can look into it. I did apply for grants through my university so each semester they'd cover $1,000 of my tuition. I forgot about RSA so thank you for mentioning it!
I really appreciate these videos! Almost done with my first term in my clinical mental health counseling program!
Thank you so much! Congratulations!!🎉🎉🎉
I came across your video. I thank you. I start practicum in two weeks, this was very helpful
Thank you for such an informative content!
Thank you for sharing these tips! I start mine next week. 😎
Good luck with your internship!😊
thank you! I loved it and really appreciated this video!! 💞
Thanks for suggesting it Kristen!! Really glad you liked it😊
Thank you for all of your hard work!

Finding my own site is something that is making me feel so overwhelmed right now. 😢
I’m so sorry it really is so overwhelming like why is this something we have to do😭
I start practicum in a few weeks.
Good luck! One step closer to finishing👏🏽🎉
@@Keep_On_Growing Any tips on how to work with crisis victims like rape intervention as an intern?
Starting to look for places for my practicum next semester. May or may not be having a small panic attack. This definitely helps though!
Same
@@Art_and_Soul_Studio making a small playlist of 100 vids ln practicum tips helps just a little 😅😅🤣
I’m in my internship right now working primarily with Hispanic men on federal parole in Dinmit county. Great experience so far
did you get to work at the jail cells for internship or at the police department?
How do people support themselves during a practicum?
Based off of my own personal experiences, some work 1-2 jobs, save up money from a previous job to sustain them through it, or are financially supported by loved ones.
Great video. Did you bring any treatment planners. Etc.

What’s the difference between internship and practicum?
For me it will be only 100 hours of practicum and 600 internship- practicum is more beginning to understand basics and internship is more rigorous with direct client contact
@@Art_and_Soul_Studio hi thanks for the info may I ask you what you’re studying and why you decided to pursue this field?

How soon do I start asking about internships? Like.. first week of the program? Or is that WAY too soon?
I would start looking around and fighting internship sites because I add to do an application and interview for mine which is time consuming

What are some examples of internship sites ?
I have a dedicated video on that with different options.😊
