The Psychology Internship at VHSO is a full-time, one year internship with full APA accreditation. Our internship setting is a comprehensive VA Medical Center that includes a 73 bed hospital with a psychiatric ward, primary care clinics, and diverse outpatient clinics including optometry, dentistry, audiology, speech pathology, and—of course—mental health. A new inpatient mental health unit is under construction right next to the outpatient mental health building where most internship activities take place. Our training calendar is built around three trimesters of four months each. Beginning with the 2024-2025 training year, our internship year will begin on the last Monday in July. Applicants in Phase II of the 2024 Match should indicate their interest in either Trauma Recovery or Primary Care-Mental Health Integration. (the Neuropsychology slot is filled.) Interns will generally work in their chosen area of focus throughout the training year. They will also complete minor rotations that may be arranged for one or more trimesters each. Minor rotations are assigned according to the interests, abilities, and training needs of the interns, as well as the training capacity of the minor rotations. The training experiences offered as major rotations/foci (i.e., PCMHI, Trauma Recovery Program, and Neuropsychology) are generally also available as minor rotations, though the experience offered as a minor rotation will obviously be less in-depth than it is when training on that rotation throughout the year. We also have training opportunities that are available only as minor rotations, such as our inpatient Substance Use Disorder program and Home Based Primary Care. We also expect to offer experience leading group therapy through the General Mental Health clinic. Assignment of rotations is a flexible process, reflecting our belief that training is at its best when it is a collaborative process that honors both the faculty’s and intern’s understanding of the intern’s aspirations and training needs.
