Clinical Incubator Program
Montana Queer Alliance is launching a Counseling Incubation Project to support emerging Clinical Candidates as they transition from graduation into independent clinical practice. This program is designed for new candidates who are ready to begin seeing clients and want a supportive, trauma informed, and/or a queer affirming environment where they can grow their skills, build confidence, and contribute directly to MQA’s mission of serving marginalized communities in rural and tribal Montana.
Empowering the next generation of clinicians.
