Psychology/Social Work Volunteer - Get Inside the Mind of Psychotherapy Practice!
Are you fascinated by what makes people tick? Ready to peek behind the curtain of real-world therapy?
We're a thriving psychotherapy practice looking for a curious, driven college student to join our team. This isn't your typical coffee-fetching internship – we're talking about genuine insight into how mental health professionals actually work their magic.
What You'll Actually Do (The Cool Stuff)
Go behind the scenes of a working therapy practice and discover how the business side meets the clinical side
Dive deep into different therapeutic approaches – from CBT to psychodynamic to whatever's catching your interest these days
Conduct research on topics that genuinely excite you (seriously, we love when interns get nerdy about something specific)
See how theory becomes practice in real-world settings
Learn the ins and outs of everything from client intake to treatment planning to practice management
Who We're Looking For
You're probably perfect for this if you:
Currently study psychology, social work, sociology, counseling, or anything in the mental health universe
Love working independently – we'll give you guidance, but we need someone who can run with projects
Ask "why" and "what if" a lot – curiosity is your superpower here
Think outside the box and aren't afraid to suggest new ideas or approaches
Can manage 5-10 hours per week without your other commitments falling apart
Are genuinely excited about mental health (not just checking a box for graduation requirements)
The Details That Matter
Time commitment: 5-10 hours per week (flexible scheduling because we know you have classes and a life)
Location: Your choice! Work remotely or join us in person – whatever works better for your learning style
Duration: One full academic semester or quarter
Compensation: This is an unpaid position, but the experience and knowledge you'll gain are invaluable
Perfect for: Students who want real-world experience that'll make their resume shine and give them stories for grad school applications
Why This Rocks
This isn't just about padding your resume (though it'll definitely do that). You'll get mentorship from experienced clinicians, exposure to diverse therapeutic modalities, and the chance to contribute meaningfully to ongoing research. Plus, if you're thinking about grad school in psychology or social work, this experience will give you the kind of insider knowledge that sets you apart.
Ready to Apply?
We want to hear from students who are genuinely passionate about mental health and ready to dive in. Tell us what aspect of psychology or therapy gets you most excited, and what you're hoping to learn from this experience.
We're an equal opportunity practice committed to creating an inclusive environment for all interns and staff.
