MSHP 685 - Sport & Human Performance Externship & Seminar III

1
The third term of externship field placement includes delivery of sport and human performance services under the mentorship of a sport psychology consultant who is certified by the Association for Applied Sport Psychology (CMPC). The field experience is paired with a seminar during which students utilize a peer consultation model to develop skills related to sport and health psychology and professional development. The focus is on the development of knowledge, skills, and values needed to provide competent and ethical counseling. In addition, students will: (a) present a case including an audiotape and an analysis of key interchanges within the session presented; (b) provide a written case conceptualization and treatment plan, integration of research with the clinical case, and an examination of social issues pertinent to the clinical case; and (c) make an oral presentation of the case. Students’ performance on both the written and oral portions is incorporated into the final student evaluation. Students who fail to pass on the second attempt are subject to dismissal from the University.
