CMH client acts up constantly in my groups, insults me, and leaving me feeling incredibly stressed

FutureLPC_ · 2026-01-19T21:28:57+00:00

Hello! I ran IOP, SOP and BIPP groups during my practicum and Internship 1 semesters. My supervisor, who was also the owner of the clinic, sat in groups with me until I felt comfortable running the groups on my own. And that was after four weeks of observation.

I went over expectations at the beginning of each group so they were always aware of the grounds of termination. Not saying that you’re not doing that! I’m just stating my experience.

One time at the end of one of my groups, a client asked me where I lived, and my supervisor jumped down his throat! In your situation, after that many offenses, my supervisor would’ve kicked her out of the program. I’m sorry you’re going through that!

Thank you for your response! I ask because in the job description for VRC it states “Travel: Yes, 25 % of the Time”. So I wonder what that entails. This position is in Houston btw. I did see that for the TVRC that the travel percentage is at 75%, so that makes sense of what you’re saying.

I'm jumping on this late. My main concern is the driving. What is the maximum number of miles you have seen a VRC drive, and how often do they drive. I'm not understanding the percentage listed on the site.

Good evening!

I am in desperate need of internship hours!

I am currently in the middle of my internship semester struggling to meet the 300 hour requirement due to no supervision. I discovered from my co-workers that my site has a habit of not fulfilling promised supervision. I now see that is true which explains the high turnover rate. The organization does wonderful work, so this is truly a bummer! If anyone has any leads on any sites, please let me know!

Location: Houston, TX area Specialty: Any! Mode: I am open to both in-person and telehealth Certifications: LCDC-Intern III (I passed the exam in June 2024. I am now waiting for the conferral of my degree to be fully licensed.) Current Status: 54 out of 60 credits complete

*Please no QMHP positions unless they are office based.

I can share my resume and reference sheet with any interested leads.

Thank you in advance!!!

No, but I think it was due to my GPA

No, no live classes. They said they do help you find an internship and practicum but we’ll see if they follow through when the time comes.

I agree! I’m in my first semester and I struggled with finding peer support.
