Overview
Candidates are placed in local schools and agencies for part-time, yearlong internship experiences.
Students in the Counseling program benefit from the strong connections that University of Puget Sound faculty have to the schools and community, and from the small, collaborative classes, active development of cultural competence, and personal mentoring from both experienced faculty members and internship supervisors.
As a counseling candidate in our M.Ed. program you will have the opportunity to explore questions such as: What skills would help me promote positive change in a variety of settings? How can I explain and understand the behavior of others? Will I be able to work effectively with families, or even larger systems, as well as individuals? How will I know if what I am doing is enhancing the well-being of people?
