As a Psychology intern, you’ll assist in the development of patient relationships, research and implement need/treatment strategies, coordinate training sessions, and shadow supervisors across a range of initiatives aimed at helping all aspects of the community, including asylum seekers, the homeless, and victims of domestic violence.

Activities vary depending on the progression of different projects. However, general tasks are related to observation and shadowing of treatments, coordination of educational activities and training, needs assessment and intervention planning, case study analysis, webinar organization, participation in cultural and educational actions in the community, and developing EU projects for funding.

Psychology interns should always come prepared to cooperate with full flexibility and sensitivity, especially while seeking to enhance their cultural intelligence and reflection on approaches that may differ. The inclusion of an intern in any treatment with a patient will always be subject to the clients agreement and relevant confidentiality requirements of the clinic.

Mentors and supervisors will speak English, however, interactions or consultations with patients may not be conducted in English. Should a language barrier arise during an observational occasion, your supervisor will be able to provide you with a debrief afterwards, concerning the relevant information.
