At this level, supervised clinical placement hours are central to your training, giving you direct experience with client work under professional oversight. You'll conduct assessments, formulate case conceptualizations, and apply intervention methods grounded in current research.

Some pursue doctoral research or policy-facing work in public health and wellbeing services.
