A precepting placement for MSW students in clinical concentrations and LCSW associates seeking supervised hours. Biopsychosocial assessment, evidence-based interventions, trauma-informed care, and the interprofessional collaboration that most outpatient internships never expose you to.
MSW students gain depth in clinical interventions and a rare working exposure to the psychiatric medical side — the part of integrated care most outpatient placements never touch.
Comprehensive intake, formulation, and treatment planning with psychiatric populations. The full biopsychosocial framework, applied to real cases under supervision.
CBT, MI, SFBT, IPT, and psychodynamic approaches — taught and practiced in the same five-modality framework Shay teaches PMHNPs.
How trauma-informed and culturally responsive practice show up in the room — and in your documentation, your pacing, your boundaries, and your case formulation.
How social workers and prescribers actually work together. The medical context for psychiatric symptoms. Communication with PMHNPs and PCPs. Integrated-care fluency.
Community resource navigation, case management, care coordination, and the wider systems your clinical work sits inside.
NASW ethics in real cases. Documentation that holds up. Scope-of-practice judgment, particularly around psychiatric and medical topics.
Include your program, concentration, expected start, hour requirements, and learning goals.
A 30-minute call to confirm fit, format, and how it aligns with your field-education plan.
We coordinate directly with your field-education office for affiliation and learning agreements.
Orientation, supervision schedule set, clinical work begins with appropriate caseload progression.
Field placements are typically arranged 6–12 months ahead of the semester start. Earlier inquiries get the best fit on dates, modality focus, and population.
