Learning for life
The Counseling Center fosters a sense of openness to life-long learning and the continuous development of skills. Interns are expected to incorporate the attitude of openness to an assortment of clinical problems/issues and collaboration with professional interactions and relationships as part of their maturing professional identity.
Interns should exit the internship with an understanding of ethics that includes legal issues, professional boundaries, and a “professional conscience” that considers the client’s welfare as a primary consideration in treatment.
Understanding oneself regarding history, background, and present-day concerns is crucial in learning to understand, respect, and ethically work with clients and co-workers. The collegial atmosphere and emphasis on relationships at the Counseling Center assist the intern in developing these crucial aspects of themselves during the training year.
