Our Internship Program

Our graduate student internship program provides training for those in their Master of Social Work or  psychology-based counseling program. We help our students in developing professional knowledge, skills and resources as they grow in their counseling training. There are opportunities for individual, couples, family, and group therapy, insurance documentation compliance training, case management, and clients of a wide range of symptoms, diagnoses, life experiences, and needs. 

Internships with True Blue are intensive placements that provide high-level, real-life training. Student interns are expected to function as therapists, meaning they regularly meet with clients, bill for sessions, and complete comprehensive documentation training–including meeting insurance compliance standards. The internship closely resembles a real-life therapy job in a group practice setting, and provides invaluable preparation for post-graduation entry into the mental health field. Our interns are guaranteed a position as an LMSW or LGPC therapist within our company post successful completion of our internship program.  

Supervision for our interns are weekly individual supervision with their site supervisor. We also offer bi-weekly group supervision when we have multiple interns who'd benefit from learning in cohort style environment.
