MA Practicum/Internship Requirements Met Internationally?
Hello, I am a current MA Counseling student at a CACREP-accredited institution. By the end of Fall '26 we have to secure our practicum/internship site.
I am based in the United States, but am transiting my life and career to Asia. I do not want to go back to the U.S. to complete my practicum/internship. However, I am having a very difficult time finding any place in Asia -- it could be Japan, South Korea, Thailand, China, Malaysia, etc., I'm not that picky -- where I could fulfill these requirements. It's difficult to even find any place that employs licensed counselors/therapists/social workers. That's not surprising, but I'm still doing my due diligence in searching.
I thus make this post in hopes someone can point me in the right direction. Thank you.
