Our counseling psych grads regularly get internships and jobs in correctional settings, hospitals, and VAs. The idea that we cannot handle substance abuse or other issues like that is an error.Graduates from the two counseling programs are represented in many different settings within the state. There are 3 in my VA, including one working in our SUDTP. There is nothing about counseling psychology that makes one ill equipped in treating substance abuse, or any other clinical presentations really. I also know UofL counseling graduates at the Federal Correctional complex, some in various state correctional institutions, and at local neurorehab centers.
