Job/Internship Description
Mental Health Internship Program
Catholic Charities’ Mental Health Internship Program aims to compliment your coursework with an in-person clinical experience.  As an intern, you will gain experience, confidence, and professional growth by managing your own client caseload. Interning with us provides a rewarding cross-cultural opportunity to gain experience in mental health with the satisfaction that you are making a difference in people’s lives, who struggle to receive quality mental health services due to the effects of poverty.

The internship program pairs you with both a clinical supervisor and clinical team for support as you provide mental health services to the local community. Under the supervision and with the support of Catholic Charities’ experienced therapists, interns provide in-office psychotherapy and counseling.

Expected Availability and Commitment
  • Internship duration of two consecutive semesters or one year.
  • 10 to 24 hours per week on-site during office hours (Monday through Friday beginning at 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM)
  • Apply for Fall 2024 or Fall 2025
Required Qualifications
  • Students must be enrolled in a master’s degree program in Social Work or a counseling related field.
  • Strong interpersonal skills; a team player with a passion for developing and maintaining strong relationships.
  • Strong oral and written communication skills; bilingual in English and Spanish is a plus!
Join our mission to provide service to those in need, to advocate for justice and to call upon others to do the same. Partner with us to improve the lives of those we serve, to empower the most vulnerable, and to help reduce poverty through quality, compassionate, and effective human services.
