We are currently accepting applications from graduate-level students seeking a clinical practicum or internship placement for the 2026-2027 academic year for a school based placement.

Interns develop practical skills in individual and family psychotherapy, diagnostic formulation, treatment planning, and electronic documentation under the supervision of licensed clinicians.

This is an unpaid academic internship required for graduation. However, to support our students with living and commuting expenses, we provide a $500.00 monthly educational stipend. Please note our transparent structure for this stipend:

• Training & Onboarding: The initial 2-week training, EHR orientation, and compliance onboarding period is focused entirely on learning agency systems and is unpaid.
• Stipend Timeline: Monthly stipend distributions of $500.00 begin processing the first full month after onboarding is completed and direct client services commence.

Clinical Supervision: Weekly, individual/group board-approved clinical supervision is provided entirely by the agency at no cost to the student.
