At New Hope, we recognize the value of internships, as well as the challenges that this can bring when you are taking classes, working, and managing other life stressors. This is why we believe in and have competitive, paid clinical internships, which are open to master's level students in Counseling, Clinical Psychology, and Social Work programs. Please note that if your school has quarters rather than semesters, or requires you to obtain your required direct hours in a single semester, our practice will not be able to support your internship needs. Our intern employees are expected to sign on for the equivalent of a full academic year (two to three semesters). At New Hope, you have the opportunity to engage in and provide counseling for individuals, families, couples, and/or groups, depending on your interests and/or program requirements. On average, our interns complete about 15-20 hours per week (clinical and non-clinical), depending on their individual program requirements. As a fee-for-service practice, you are paid anywhere from $10 to $20 per session, depending on the length of the session. While here, at least half of your time is spent in sessions and direct contact with clients and the remaining is on clinically relevant administrative, supervision, or learning experiences. Applications for Spring Semester (January) start dates are open from July through early September. Applications for Summer Semester (May) start dates are open from mid-November through mid-January. Applications for Fall Semester (August) start dates are open from February to April. Please note that our supervisor availability is limited, and once supervisors are full, while the application will remain open, we will not be accepting any more interviews for internship positions.
