Clinical Training
Program
CCCAC's Clinical Department provides a supervised experience in
various aspects of community-based mental-health treatment. The
department was formed to meet the mental health needs of children
traumatized by abuse, neglect, and or domestic violence. Services
are also available to non-offending family members.
Working within a state-of-the-art
therapy center that includes ten developmentally specialized therapy
rooms, the Clinical Training Program offers graduate students an
opportunity to experience multiple therapeutic modalities including
play therapy, individual, art, music, family, and group therapies.
Under supervision, graduate
level practicum students, counselor interns, social work fellows
and post-doctoral psychology fellows provide professional services.
Students receive weekly individual supervision of at least one hour,
and group supervision of at least two hours.
Four types of internships
are available:
- Master's level practicum students completing a Masters degree
in a mental health counseling field. They contract 9 months of
service as part of graduation requirements.

in a mental health field and a temporary license. They contract
