Saybrook's Residential Learning Experience (RLE) is a cornerstone of the Clinical Psychology and Counseling programs, providing students with valuable in-person training opportunities that complement their online coursework. Held at the beginning of each semester, these immersive learning experiences help students fulfill residential requirements associated with licensure-track education while gaining hands-on practice in a collaborative, supportive environment.

During the RLE, students engage directly with faculty, peers, and invited practitioners through workshops, lectures, seminars, clinical skills training, roundtable discussions, and other experiential learning activities. These intensives are designed to help students apply classroom concepts to real-world clinical practice, strengthen professional competencies, and build meaningful connections within the Saybrook community.

The Spring 2027 Residential Learning Experience will take place January 4-8*, 2027, at the Sheraton Gateway Los Angeles Hotel in Southern California.

Residential Learning Experiences are intended for students and faculty in Saybrook's Counseling and Clinical Psychology programs. Hotel booking is open and event registration will open soon. Additional event details, registration information, hotel accommodations, and participant resources are provided directly to enrolled students from [email protected].

*Counseling student programming will conclude on January 7.
