What to Expect
One internship. Multiple settings.
Interns gain experience in both outpatient counseling and community-based settings. Depending on placement, services may be provided at MDCC, through telehealth, or at community sites such as schools and other partner locations.
Interns should be prepared to work with diverse clients and adapt to the different expectations, workflows, and needs of each setting.
