Despite the call to internationalize counseling psychology and calls for improved mentoring to Asian international students enrolled in counseling psychology training programs, there is a dearth of literature to help trainers understand this population’s clinical training experiences. The present study explored the practicum experiences of Asian international students ( N = 10) in counseling psychology programs using the consensual qualitative research method. Data analysis yielded five domains: Learning Outcomes, Challenges, Resources, Behavioral Strategies, and Suggestions. Participants described how they navigated their cross-cultural practicum training in the face of unique challenges and how they adapted, as well as relied on support systems. As our participants reflected on their cross-cultural clinical training experiences, they shared the lessons they learned and provided suggestions for current and future international students, supervisors, and programs. Scholarly and practical implications for this population are discussed
