Our program subscribes to the scientist-practitioner model. Although we believe that the internship should be devoted primarily to clinical activities, science provides the backbone for much of our clinical practice. The majority of our faculty are involved in research projects . The core of the intern's training is in the clinical activities on the various rotations , and each intern will be active in a wide range of clinical activities. Our program is a General Internship , and as such, interns gain experience working with both adults and children.
Interns have experiences in psychotherapy and assessment with both children and adults.
Our major goal is to prepare students for the practice of professional psychology, particularly clinical and counseling psychology. Choices an intern makes allow for specialized training in pediatric and clinical child psychology, child maltreatment, clinical neuropsychology, and health psychology while maintaining a general internship philosophy.
