Are interns qualified?

Yes! interns have completed all of their course work to receive their masters degree in counseling. Internship is an opportunity for them to implement what they have learned.

What are the benefits of working with clinical interns?

• Interns are actively learning the most up-to-date techniques and theories in mental health and psychology.

• Interns are supervised by at least two supervisors (Site supervisors and educational supervisor), which means you have the benefit of having two or three professionals dedicating to helping you achieve your goals.

• Interns are able to provide a sliding scale while working to obtain their counseling degree

• All interns are supervised by Nardine Staroverov, LMFT.
