Internship opportunity in colorado
What Makes This Internship Different?
Because we are a small group practice, interns often receive:
- Close mentorship and individualized guidance
- Exposure to real private-practice workflow
- Opportunities for deeper learning within a collaborative team culture
- A more personal training experience than large agency settings
At times, you may be the only intern in the practice which many students find allows for more focused learning and stronger clinical growth.
Interns are supervised by Athena McCullough, LPC, LMFT, who provides relationally grounded guidance, clinical support, and mentorship throughout the internship experience. Supervision focuses on helping interns develop confidence, strengthen clinical judgment, and build a sustainable therapeutic identity while working with real clients in a private practice setting.
Who We're Looking For
We tend to be a strong match for interns who:
- Value connection, curiosity, and relational therapy
- Are self-motivated and comfortable with independence
- Want experience in a private practice setting
- Are eager to learn and collaborate as part of a small team
