Clinical Internship Track (LPC-A & Master’s Level)

This program is designed for graduate-level mental health counseling students or LPC Associates seeking a comprehensive, LLR-aligned internship. Interns receive:

  • Supervision by a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPCS)

  • Hands-on experience in assessment, treatment planning, and documentation

  • Specialized training in trauma, identity, attachment, and dissociation

  • Practice with mock client profiles (MCPs), co-led sessions, and InternChat

  • Exposure to intake coordination, case presentations, and discharge planning

  • Monthly workshops, quarterly projects, and progress feedback

Interns are invited to step into leadership, reflection, and somatic presence—not just clinical practice.

Our non-clinical internships offer a rare look behind the scenes of mental health and wellness practice. Open to students in psychology, business, communications, or related majors, this track includes:

  • Administrative support & scheduling experience

  • Community outreach, blog development, and program coordination

  • Optional shadowing opportunities (when appropriate)

  • Project management tied to public wellness initiatives

  • A foundational learning environment rooted in holistic mental health

These placements are ideal for undergraduates seeking experience before applying to graduate programs or working in the nonprofit/wellness space.
