CLINICAL INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
Are you seeking clinical internship? Do you need a site to complete your program requirements?
A New Hope Therapy Center is excited to offer our Clinical Internship Program. Our program centers on providing interns with a welcoming and supportive environment, the flexibility and professionalism of an established private practice setting, and the opportunity to complete their clinical hours while becoming familiarized with multiple approaches to treatment.
Interns will learn to effectively provide therapy to children, adults, couples and families of varied cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds under the guidance of supervision and the support of highly trained and experienced clinicians. They will also become an integral part of our mission to provide greatly needed therapeutic services to our local community.
"The best experience is that I could practice hands-on while being guided to practice ethically and implement theories within sessions. I recommend this site for clinicians that want to learn what a safe and constructive work environment should be. There are many experiences that can be learned through the supervisors and other professional clinicians."

What Our Former Interns Are Saying...
"15/10 would recommend. I never expected to have such a wholesome, challenging, and exciting internship experience. Everyone at A New Hope genuinely cares for us interns. The amount of support provided is unfathomable. The seasoned supervisors are approachable and calm - always respecting you, even when providing constructive feedback. My supervisor embraced my character, strengths, and aspirations.
Maria (CEO) makes herself more accessible than I could have hoped for - she will make time to share what she knows with you, all you have to do is ask. This practice is refreshing, encouraging, and the ideal place to become the counselor that you dream of becoming prior to graduating. It is a fun, safe I assure you: you will not regret being associated with A New Hope and absorbing the wealth of knowledge only they can provide so beautifully."
