Individual supervision is scheduled in the morning. Supervisors and students share personally regarding the physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual challenges which are affecting work with clients. This is followed by peer supervision, during which the needs of clients are approached as a team. Though the primary modality is individual therapy, work with couples, and groups is also periodically available. Diagnostic skill is developed primarily through the intake process.
Students are responsible for the intake interview and written summary required for each new client.
Psychological testing is sometimes available, when this meets a student's interests and training needs. Students are encouraged to participate in the Center's educational and preventive services. Requests are also received for such services at parishes and other ministerial settings. Students will also have the opportunity of responding to requests for organizational and interpersonal consultation in institutional and community-living settings. All supervision is provided by clinical psychologists, licensed to practice in Illinois.
