What is an intern PCIT?

Intern PCITs are students or recent graduates who are gaining practical experience in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) under supervision. Their role typically involves observing therapy sessions, assisting licensed therapists, and learning evidence-based techniques for improving parent-child relationships and managing child behavioral issues. Internships in PCIT are valuable for those pursuing careers in psychology, counseling, or social work, as they provide hands-on learning in a clinical setting. Intern PCITs are usually required to follow ethical guidelines and confidentiality protocols while working with families.
