Internship For Clinical Psychology
Overview
Our Internship in Clinical Psychology is designed to provide an intensive American Psychological Association-accredited (Commission on Accreditation, 750 First Street N.E., Washington, D.C., 20002-4242, 202-336-5979) clinical internship training experience. The Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences is the coordinating agency for the development and operation of the training program in Clinical Psychology. The faculty as a whole participates in the internship. The Psychology Internship Training Committee serves as the major forum for ongoing discussion of the training program. Applicants are invited to review our 2021-2022 Handbook Manual and 2021-2022 Policy Manual. These Manuals are updated annually and subject to change.
Training Philosophy
UT Health San Antonio’s Psychology Internship Training Program is an APA-accredited (accredited through 2023) Clinical Psychology Internship Program. The program subscribes to a scientist-practitioner training philosophy and generalist training model. Our program aims include the following: breadth of training, intensive supervision, practice and science of applied psychology, and ethical and sensitive practice to individual and cultural differences.
Program Aims
Breadth of training – As applied psychology expands to encompass many new areas, the clinical psychologist needs to be trained in a broad variety of skills rather than any single specialty. A good program should be comprehensive in scope.
As a generalist program, we are able to provide our interns with a wide range of training activities including intake work, diagnostic assessment, and group, individual, and family psychotherapy. Interns provide care for diverse patient populations including adults, adolescents, and children with a wide range of presenting problems. A significant percentage of the patients served come from under-served urban areas. Approximately 50 to 60 percent of the training experiences involve services to minorities (primarily Hispanic). There are also opportunities for work with Veteran and military populations at some sites. In addition to clinical care, we have provided interns with opportunities for involvement in applied clinical research and/or process improvement activities.
Intensive supervision – A second major point is the importance of close and careful monitoring of each intern’s experience, with useful feedback to the intern. The content and timing of evaluations is set to maximize a student’s growth. This implies a close individual involvement in each student’s progress by faculty and supervisors.
Interns’ work is intensively supervised on an individual basis, with each intern scheduled for a minimum of four hours per week of supervision. Most supervision is provided by the psychology faculty. Interns may also have the opportunity to work with and receive feedback from psychiatry faculty and social work staff.
Practice and science of applied psychology – Quality clinical internship training should impart skills focusing on the process and science of psychological work.
The Clinical Psychology Internship was established in 1970 with the faculty making a philosophical commitment to the “scientist-practitioner model,” emphasizing the practitioner side of the Boulder model. More recently, we have added opportunities for training in evidence-based assessment and treatment approaches. The internship year is seen as a time to emphasize first-hand experiences with clinical involvement under intense individual supervision by faculty who demonstrate clear and visible scientific and professional interests.
Psychology Interns receive year-long education designed to help strengthen their understanding and skill in assessment and psychotherapeutic process. Our students also learn the fundamentals of outcome evaluations and use of available scientific principles and data to guide their selection of clinical interventions and help them learn to evaluate and evolve their clinical practice.
Practice ethically and with sensitivity to individual and cultural differences – All psychologists should be able to practice ethically and with sensitivity to cultural and individual differences that impact their clinical and professional activities.
The Internship program has made systematic and long-term efforts to attract interns and staff from culturally diverse backgrounds, including diversity across age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, language, national origin, race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, and socio-economic background. These efforts have resulted in the admission of culturally diverse interns and supervisors. The internship sites have a training environment that is sensitive and shows respect for individual and cultural diversity.
The psychology training program values diversity and evaluates interns on multicultural competencies. The internship has a series of diversity didactics during the year, and interns have numerous opportunities for supervised experiences in clinical services delivered to an ethnically and culturally diverse client population within San Antonio and the surrounding communities (over 60% of the population in this area is Hispanic). The internship provides routine discussion of diversity issues within the context of clinical supervision and formal didactic seminars.
