The counseling practicum and internship manual : a resource for graduate counseling students / Shannon Hodges, PhD, LMHC, NCC, ACS.

Includes bibliographies and index.

"The intention of this book is to offer a counselor's practicum and internship manual targeted at and to be used specifically in graduate counselor education programs. Written by a professional counselor and counselor educator who has supervised numerous professional counselors in the field as well as graduate counseling students, it strives to make a distinction between the counseling profession and the related fields of psychology and social work. Of the three professions, counseling is the only one that trains students primarily in the practice of counseling. Although psychology and social work programs certainly do an excellent job in educating and training future psychologists and social workers, counseling is an ancillary, as opposed to a primary, function for professionals in those fields. This text is written for students in graduate counseling programs"--
