PartI:IntroductionPurposeoftheManual
The purpose of the Clinical PracticeManual is to provide informationaboutthecontext,objectives,activities,andresponsibilitiesoftheclinicalpracticecomponentoftheCounselingProgramcurriculumatTheUniversityofArizona.Theguidelinesin thisManual are intended to be flexiblebecause clinicalpractice situationsmaydiffer, yet not so flexible that the integrity of the clinical experience iscompromised. Differences can be due to the uniqueness of each student, each agency setting,each agency supervisor and each client. Nevertheless, thisManualwill provide specificguidelines,expectations,andprocedurestoensureconsistencyandstructuretoPracticumandInternship clinicalexperiences.AdditionalclarificationcanbeprovidedbytheassignedPracticumor InternshipUniversity FacultySupervisor.
