The Lived Experiences of Student Counselors Completing Practicum and Internship Hours at a Homeless Shelter Setting
Joshua Freeman
ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Texas A&M University - Commerce
This study explores student counselors' lived experiences when providing counseling to homeless persons in a shelter setting. This phenomenological study attempts to better understand the experiences that beginning counselors (N = 10) have during their practicum and internship experience working with high-need, homeless clientele and residing in a homeless shelter. This study outlines the many considerations that homeless clients present to counselors, the various stressors and developmental considerations beginning counselors navigate throughout their graduate program, and purposes to understand the internal experience of beginning counselors seeing this clientele in order to provide better supervision and support at both the site and faculty level.
