Pre-Professional Graduate Training Program

THE PRE-PROFESSIONAL GRADUATE TRAINING PROGRAM at the Ithaca College Counseling Center is designed to meet the individual needs of the trainee within the context of the mission and procedures established by the center.

We contribute to the professional development of graduate student trainees by providing them with a broad clinical experience under the supervision of a skilled and experienced staff member.  In addition, trainees immerse themselves in the experience of working in a lively college counseling center where individual and group work, outreach, and consultation take place in service of the academic and personal growth of students and the academic mission of the instituion.

Beyond providing valuable clinical services to Ithaca College students, trainees contribute to our center  by increasing the diversity of our staff of providers, introducing us to new ideas, and helping us keep sharp our skills in clinical supervision. We view the training program as a vehicle for continuing to improve our service to Ithaca College students. We invite applications from all who are interested in participating in such a program.

You are eligible for our program if . . .

Interested students should submit a résumé and a list of completed course work and prior clinical experience, if any.  Selection of trainees will occur in consultation with the graduate programs of our applicants.
