I completed the combined Registration Program and Graduate Diploma of Counselling. Through ACAP, I was able to find placements that suited me and was offered employment at one of them. Having the opportunity to discuss any learning or questions with my primary supervisor helped me to grow professionally. Through secondary supervision I was also able to learn how to perform specific testing and use these in my practice. The support and availability of my supervisors made me feel more confident in the work environment and able to communicate my role as a Psychologist.
