Program Description

The Clinical Psychology internship at Hawthorn Center emphasizes Child/Adolescent Clinical Psychology, and provides interns with a comprehensive, well-supervised clinical experience with children, adolescents and families.  Interns are involved in inpatient and outpatient assessment and treatment, consultation, and seminars.  Inpatient treatment involves long-term and short-term cases, along with milieu and inter-disciplinary team functioning.  Consultation with hospital, school personnel and community mental health caseworkers is also an important component of the program. Opportunities for specialized assessments include differential diagnosis, autism spectrum disorder, and trauma evaluations, etc. Outpatient rotation services provide an opportunity to conduct treatment and assessment with children and families in a community based setting. Treatment approaches include cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, applied behavior analysis, acceptance and commitment, as well as parent child management training.
