Graduate Clinical Psychology Practicum

Practicum placements

Clinical practicum experiences are an integral part of the training sequence in the master's and doctoral clinical psychology programs at the University of Indianapolis. Year-long placements allow you to integrate assessment, diagnosis and treatment in a single setting. Coordinated through UIndy's director of clinical training, you'll have the opportunity to work with one of more than 60 practicum sites affiliated with our program.

All students in training at a practicum site participate concurrently in a weekly Professional Practice Seminar group at the University.

To ensure high-quality training and supervision, practicum sites and supervisors are evaluated regularly and approved by the School of Psychological Sciences.

Supervised skill development

In these placements, you will gain supervised experience in clinical assessment and testing, psychotherapy with various types of patients, collaboration and consultation with interdisciplinary teams, program development and evaluation, treatment planning and case management, and other aspects of professional psychology.
