Possible Preceptor Choices: licensed clinical social worker, licensed mental health counselor/professional counselor, licensed psychologist, other appropriately licensed/certified mental health professional if the license requires a minimum of a master’s degree in the area of mental health. (Note: Every state has different license categories for mental health professionals, so students should be aware of the different license categories in the state and verify the qualifications with the Office of Field Experience prior to nominating a preceptor if there are questions regarding the qualifications. The licensee must have completed supervised clinical experiences as part of the requirements along with a master’s or doctoral degree in the area of practice within the field of mental health.)

Possible Site Choices: Private practice, community psychiatric and/or counseling center, crisis centers, drug/alcohol rehabilitation center, college counseling center, employee assistance program (EAP) sites, or assisted living/Alzheimer’s facility, hospital or specialty care facility, jails/prisons, long-term care, hospice, palliative care, or any other site where you have access to all three groups—individual, families, and group for psychotherapy interventions (to be determined on an individual basis).

Nonacceptable Sites: Any form of community and/or home visits.

Nonacceptable Preceptors: PMHNP, PMHCNS, Psychiatrist, FNP, AGACNP, AGPCNP, or any other NP. No PAs. No OT, PT, or Speech Therapist. No preceptors who are “spiritual” or “religious-based” counselors will be permitted unless they possess a master’s or higher degree from a regionally accredited institution of higher learning and are licensed to provide psychotherapy services in their state. Practitioners who have graduate-, associate-, or intern-level licenses are not acceptable preceptors because they are not practicing as unsupervised practitioners—if they are required to be supervised as part of their licensure requirement, they are not acceptable preceptors.

Any schedule for more than 8 hours per day must be verified through preceptor email to faculty as preceptor working a condensed schedule AND approved by faculty.
