Practicum Program
Nuway Counselling offers a variety of modalities in our counselling services, including but not limited to CBT, DBT, ACT, Gottman, EFT and more. Graduating from our practicum program has the potential to gain employment within our organization when opportunities come up.
As Nuway Counselling is a private practice, students are responsible for supervision fees. Supervisors' rate is posted online. Please refer to our fee schedules. However, there are many ways to reduce the cost, which will be discussed in the interview.
Please feel free to ask us any questions if you would like to learn more about our current supervisors. Or you can visit the supervisors' profiles here: Ms. Bessie Wang and Ms. Patsy Wong.
