Please note, at this time, our site does not offer clinical supervison. We know how challenging it is to have to find a practicum site that will offer the opportunity for practicum students. We are proud to share our virtual practice with you, give back and help you get a chance to put all the skills you have learned into practice. In saying this, students would need to obtain an external approved clinical superviosr to fullfill the clinical supervison requirement on their own expense. If you would like us to assist you in finding an approved clinical supervisor, please let us know, we have many that have supported us through our journey too.
