Some problems in life are too difficult to handle alone. When problems like tensions in a marriage, behavioral issues with a teen or pre-teen, depression, anxiety, or daily stressors overwhelm someone’s life, they do not need to walk that road alone. With over a hundred years of dedicated service to our neighbors in need, Catholic Charities Counseling Services, with the crucial help of our interns, is able to provide culturally competent, high quality mental health services to individuals, families, children, and couples of all faiths and backgrounds.
Catholic Charities’ Mental Health Internship Program aims to compliment your coursework with an in-person clinical experience. As an intern, you will gain experience, confidence, and professional growth by managing your own client caseload. Interning with us provides a rewarding cross-cultural opportunity to gain experience in mental health with the satisfaction that you are making a difference in people’s lives, who struggle to receive quality mental health services due to the effects of poverty. |
The internship program pairs you with both a clinical supervisor and clinical team for support as you provide mental health services to the local community. Under the supervision and with the support of Catholic Charities’ experienced therapists, interns provide in-office psychotherapy and counseling.
