The course focuses on management of crisis issues, legal/ethical practice, diagnosis, multicultural treatment, treatment planning, application of theory to actual clients, integration, and case management services. Clinical work is discussed from a community mental health and private practice perspective. The final evaluative component of the MFT program, the clinical comprehensive exam, is taken at the conclusion of this course. Students must be serving at an APU-approved training site to be enrolled in this course. Prerequisite: PPSY 597
