Why Clients Love Working with Our Trusted Interns
Thoughtful, Personalized Support
Interns are often deeply dedicated to their clients—they’re eager to make a difference and apply what they’ve learned. That means you may get extra time, care, and attention as they work to really understand and support you.
​
Fresh, Up-to-Date Training
Because they’re still in school or recently graduated, interns are learning the most currenttherapy methods and research. Their approach is grounded in today’s best practices, and they’re excited to put it into action.
Affordable Care That Doesn’t Cut Corners
Working with an intern is a great option if therapy fees have felt out of reach. Our intern sessions are $50, making high-quality mental health care more accessible—without sacrificing the depth or thoughtfulness you deserve.
​
Expert Supervision = Double Support
Every intern is closely supervised by a licensed therapist. That means you’re getting two layers of care: the intern’s fresh perspective, plus the experience and oversight of a seasoned clinician behind the scenes.
New Energy and Ideas
Interns bring curiosity, openness, and new insights into the therapy room. They’re not set in their ways, which can lead to creative solutions and approaches tailored to you.
​
Room to Grow Together
Starting with an intern could be the start of a meaningful, long-term relationship. If it’s a good fit, you may be able to continue working with them as they become fully licensed.
All sessions are offered via secure telehealth video for your convenience and privacy.
