We offer a program most other internship sites would envy:

Individual and group work with a wide spectrum of mental health clients
Flexibility in the treatment modalities employed as you develop your clinical practice
Training and well-organized orientations designed to get you working with clients quickly (but always at a pace you can personally manage)
Group and individual supervision each week

Reliable accumulation of internship hours in two clinical environments

As an intern in our program, you will get experience in our Outpatient Mental Health program, which serves primarily Medicaid and Medicare populations, and The Wellness Project, our unique, free mental health clinic, serving uninsured adults. Both are each located right off I-5, just north of the Columbia River in Vancouver.

In their own words, an internship success story:

"I have gotten most everything that I was looking for in this internship experience at Community Services Northwest/Wellness Project. More than anything, I have felt consistent support through regular group supervision as well as individual supervision. I feel supported here to practice therapy in such a way that matches who I am. The professional environment here is collaborative and engaging, which helps me feel empowered as I work with clients. This is important because this empowerment that I feel is then able to be offered to my clients."
