The goal of the Consortium is to provide an integrated, individually-tailored and coordinated series of learning experiences that will serve the aspiring professional psychologist with opportunities to: (a) practice and expand on previously held knowledge and learned skills; (b) develop new skills and knowledge; and (c) experience personal and professional growth and development, thus contributing to the emergence of a competent, scientist/practitioner professional psychologist. This internship program is focused on delivering quality services to individuals and/or families.
Regardless of the particular experiences that combine to create the intern's training context, the intern will obtain well-supervised experiences in the psychological assessment process, in a broad range of therapeutic intervention activities, in crisis intervention and emergency care, and in applied or basic research activities. In addition, the intern will engage in mental health, behavioral, and program consultation, primary prevention activities, and family therapy. The Consortium is especially concerned with providing services to traditionally underserved groups. All interns engage in planned activities with individuals and/or families from diverse and unique cultural/racial/ethnic groups.
