你将完成总共100小时的实习经验, plus 600 total hours of supervised internship. This will prepare you for eligibility for License as a Professional Counselor (LPC) in the State of Pennsylvania. Graduates from the program must pass the National Counselor Exam and fulfill the required post-degree supervision requirements to earn the LPC credential in the State of Pennsylvania.

Syllabi for enrolled or prospective students are available for review. 请与我们的 项目负责人 或者我们的 CACREP联络 对于任何特定的教学大纲.

*许可: This program was designed to meet the licensure requirements of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 如果你住在另一个州, you should carefully review your home state’s licensure requirements prior to enrolling in this program. For more information, please visit our Program Licensure Requirement page.

我们项目的准备工作是获得许可的重要一步, an important professional achievement that marks the end of your time as an entry-level counselor. 研究生, pre-licensed counselors work under the supervision of a licensed counselor to fulfill their state’s requirements for supervised experience.

在宾夕法尼亚州, 这个要求需要3,000 hours of supervised clinical experience that must be completed in no less than 2 years and no more than 6 years. Because of this, the licensure process can take several years beyond graduation to complete.

这个信息是不是很新，让人有点不知所措? 你可以指望我们帮你把这一切整理好.

One of our program’s strengths is in helping our students understand counseling as a profession so that they are prepared to navigate their post-graduate experience with confidence.

从特别研讨会到指导会议, our students can count on getting practical support on an ongoing basis throughout their time at GMercyU.

Another important attribute of our program is that you’ll be taught by professionals who have not only received an advanced degree in counseling but who have had significant clinical experience. 这很重要，因为咨询, 不像其他职业, 不仅仅是学术学习.

事实上, we believe that some of the most important learning you will be doing throughout your time with us is about yourself.  

我们的学生毕业时知道以下问题的答案: 

• 作为一个学习者，我的优势和挑战是什么?  作为一名顾问?
• 我的咨询风格是什么?
• 我最喜欢和哪些客户合作?  Why?
• 什么样的咨询环境最适合我?

Helping you to achieve clarity about who you are as both a person and as a professional is an important goal for us.
