Program Description

The People Incorporated Psychology Doctoral Internship training philosophy is based on the practitioner-scholar model which emphasizes that clinical practice is informed by the science of psychology. Interns learn to use scholarly inquiry to understand and apply relevant research findings to clinical practice.

 The People Incorporated staff with the support of our Board of Directors considers training as one of our responsibilities in educating psychology interns in the areas of community based mental health. With our organizational commitment to recruitment and retention, we also see our Doctoral Psychology Intern program as an opportunity to attract potential future employees. People Incorporated is fortunate to also have 3 full time trainers as well as bring in mental health professionals from the community to provide over 80 trainings annually. Our clinics are staffed with licensed psychologists, licensed clinical social workers, licensed marriage and family therapists, licensed addiction counselors and psychiatrists. This provides for cross discipline consultation and we recognize the value that this brings to the interns work with their clients.

Our clinic staff use and support an integrative approach to therapy. Our services are trauma informed and person centered. We offer therapy utilizing motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, skills training, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, assertiveness emotional regulation, and interpersonal communication skills. Several of our clinic staff are trained in DBT, trauma, and EMDR. 

 Training opportunities are available in Minneapolis, New Hope, and Coon Rapids. All of our locations serve adolescents, adults and families.
