We will be holding interviews for the program exclusively via Skype this year. We hope to be able to offer on-site open houses to those interested in touring in Janurary, however, this will depend on current CDC recommendations related to COVID-19. Please note that participation in any open houses offered will not impact our ranking decisions in any way.
Applicants are notified by telephone or email regarding available interview times/dates. Those who will not be interviewed are informed by email that they are no longer candidates for the program. Typically, interviews are conducted primarily in January, with some possible dates being made available in late December or early February.
Interns work out of one of two community-based settings in Lebanon (Renaissance) or Harrisburg (17th St), Pennsylvania where they provide mental health and drug and alcohol treatment in both individual and group formats. During the training year, interns are exposed to a very diverse group of clients with a wide range of presenting concerns and work under the supervision of licensed psychologists. Helping interns to develop their skills as multiculturally competenent practitioners is an important goal of the internship program.
Individuals from diverse backgrounds are highly encouraged to apply to the Doctoral Internship Program at Pennsylvania Counseling Services.
Experiences during the training year include:
Notable aspects of the internship include:
Some travel between sites is generally required for assessments, supervision, and specific trainings.
Pennsylvania Counseling Services is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
