  Your Internship Coach


Graduate school has prepared you well in all areas of psychology . . . except how to enter the profession.  Unless you are a rare student, you probably know very little about how to market your qualifications in applying for your internship. 

Yet, each year, more and more applicants compete for a relatively constant number of internship positions nationwide.  As more and more students enter the applicant pool, self-knowledge and personal marketing skills have become crucial for success in this process.

Personal marketing skills were never as important as they are now.

Your Internship Coach can provide you with the guidance and support you need throughout this challenging process.  Often, the writing, interviewing, and personal marketing skills you learn can from individual coaching can make the crucial difference between matching with the internship training you want and settling for something far less satisfying - or, worse,  having to start all over again next year.

You have invested a great deal of money, time, energy, and commitment in preparing for your work as a professional psychologist.  Can you afford to leave your professional future to chance?  Or do you want to increase your chances of a good match by getting prepared?
