We have 3 intern slots available for the 2025-2026 internship year. Psychology Interns will experience two types of health service psychology practice during their internship experience. Our goal is to work with each intern to develop their own tailored learning experience to meet their future practice goals. Our outpatient therapy clinic provides the opportunity to practice traditional outpatient therapy services (short- and longer-term therapy) to youth and/or adults in one of our outpatient clinics located in Wenatchee. Our outpatient work also includes patient care opportunities such as groups & family therapy. Our program emphasizes empirically based psychotherapies. Integrated Primary Care BH will be offered through our primary care clinics in Wenatchee, providing supportive BH consultation & care as an Integrated Behavioral Health provider to youth and/or adults. Integrated primary care behavioral health emphasizes the brief, solution-focused treatment that seems to best serve our primary care setting and patient needs.
Interns will have the opportunity to participate in both outpatient and integrated care while on internship. Interns will also make decisions as to how they want to build their internship experience(s), in conjunction with the Training Director and their individual clinical supervisors, throughout the internship year.
Interns will also have an opportunity to further practice and develop their assessment skills using standardized assessment tools, from brief clinical tools (e.g., PHQ-9, GAD-7, CES-DC, SCARED, PCL-5, Y-BOCS, etc.) to broader assessment instruments such as the Woodcock-Johnson IV Cognitive & Achievement Scales or the Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI).
Internship supervisors are on site in all of our locations throughout the internship program. Each clinical supervisor is also readily available via Teams video call, phone, email and/or text as needed on a daily basis.
