PY 686A: Pro Sem MFT I

Description:

Restricted to MFT MA I students

The Professional Seminar represents a combination of academically based supervision and a course in which students' are aided in the development of their identity as marriage and family therapists by examining issues that arise in relation to the concurrent practicum or internship experience. The purpose of the first Professional Seminar is to aid students' in their transition to the graduate program, to help them integrate academic coursework with the practice of systems therapy, to monitor their progress as they begin the practicum experience and to introduce students' to the notion of the ongoing process of examining oneself in the role of marriage and family therapist. This semester of the Professional Seminar will continue to familiarize students' with the AAMFT Code of Ethics as a follow-up to the summer introduction course.
