A Counselor’s View of Ireland 2018



After all the St. Patrick's Day festivities, we wanted to share an exciting opportunity for counseling students, alumni, and practitioners to travel abroad to Dublin, Ireland this summer. 

During the “Counselor’s View of Ireland” International Counseling Institute, participants will learn about the counseling profession through seminars by Irish and American counselors. Participants will also gain first-hand experience visiting mental health and substance abuse treatment centers throughout Ireland. You also earn 25 Continuing Education Credits (CEUs)!
