Internal Practicums and Supervision D.M.F.T. students must also complete the clinical portfolio, annual reviews, and client contact and supervision hours requirements. Additionally, 1,000 clinical hours (minimum of 400 relational) and 200 supervised hours at the department’s approved site(s) are required to complete the program. Students must select at least one department-approved site for their external practicum courses and keep a copy of all completed and signed forms and hours during their entire program and for future needs. • Internal Practicum: Four terms of enrollment in internal clinical practicums at the Brief Therapy Institute, the program’s on-campus clinical facility, are required. Teams of students (maximum of six) meet weekly with a faculty supervisor to work with live, community-referred clients. Cases are supervised throughout the calendar year. Students may choose a flexible practicum during their fourth practicum if one is available. It is provided for students to see cases independently at the clinic. The faculty supervisor must approve this independent placement and students must continue to obtain supervision during this time. • Supervision: One course in the fundamentals of supervision of couple and family therapy clinicians is required. Additionally, students will register for two supervision practicums that offer them the opportunity to practice skills learned in that class. Students must be in good academic standing to be eligible to register for the course.
