CAPS Doctoral Internship in Professional Psychology
The Center for Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) at Penn State offers a full-time twelve month doctoral internship designed to provide high quality training in the multiple functions carried out within a major university counseling center. Intensively supervised experiences are offered in individual and group counseling/psychotherapy, crisis intervention, assessment and diagnosis, consultation/outreach, research, training, and other activities appropriate to the setting. Professional development is fostered within the context of a service-delivery system, which has a long-standing tradition of dedication to excellence in training. The Program has been APA accredited for the past 26 years. We had our last site visit in the spring of 2006 and received full accreditation for seven years.
The doctoral internship in Professional Psychology is fully accredited by the American Psychological Association, 750 First St., NE, Washington, D.C., 20002-4242 (202) 336-5979. The Center for Counseling and Psychological Services is a unit of Student Affairs.
