Interning as an Outpatient Therapist: Developing a Comprehensive Training Manual Grounded in the Professional Knowledge Base

Author

Katie Stadheim, Minnesota State University Mankato

Abstract

The purpose of this Capstone Project is to develop an intern orientation manual that is effective in training outpatient therapy interns. The manual needs to be supported by the literature in developing orientation training manuals and in the orientation needs of therapy interns. The manual needs to be easy to use and learn from, particularly when a supervisor is not available for training. A completed intern orientation manual will be presented to the stakeholders and directors of Counseling Services of Southern Minnesota to be used with future interns at their discretion.
