Internship Program

Designed to facilitate an introduction into the clinical setting of a practicing therapist through education, clinical skill-based trainings, individual and group supervision sessions, shadowing opportunities, and ultimately building a personal caseload. Student's will be engaged in multiple therapeutic modalities to reinforce the development of their unique approach to mental health support for their clients.
