MSWK 6750 - Clinical Practice I

Credits: 3
This is the first course in a two-course sequence of Advanced Clinical Practice. Students in this course will integrate core counseling skills and generalist social work practice perspective gained in MSWK 6660 into a personal treatment philosophy from an ecosystemic perspective using social work theoretical approaches to individuals, families, and groups. Another major thrust for the course will be to integrate the eclectic knowledge base of MSWK 6660 on a group, community, and an organizational level into social work treatment models and theories (e. g. , Ethnic-Sensitive/Multidimensional Practice Model; Task-Centered, Life Model of Practice). This is a “how to” hands on course with the primary objective of learning how to integrate theory into practice on a micro, mezzo, and macro level.
