Specialized Services - EMDR, neurofeedback, contingency management
Coming Soon - Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) and employment services
At The Well, therapy isn't one-size-fits-all. We meet people where they are-sometimes literally-whether that's in their home, on a walk, through telehealth, or in sessions tailored to their unique rhythm and needs. Interns aren't simply “placed” here-you become part of the team and are trusted to make valuable contributions from day one.
What You'll Get
Individualized Learning - Internship shaped around your passions, career goals, and strengths.

Who We're Looking For
At The Well, we aren't looking for interns who just log hours-we're looking for future leaders in behavioral health. Future Wellies show these core values:

Show Up with Generosity - You give more than the minimum, whether preparing thoughtfully for group, lending support to peers, or showing compassion to clients who challenge you to learn and grow.
Check the Ego - You're willing to learn out loud-asking questions, owning mistakes, welcoming feedback. Growth is not about looking perfect.
Embrace Diversity - You adapt your approach across cultures and identities, honor lived experiences different from your own, and push yourself to recognize and challenge bias.
What Makes This Internship Different
The Well stands apart from other behavioral health organizations-and our internships are no exception. Most internships prepare you for today. At The Well, you'll help shape tomorrow. Here's how that comes to life:
Radically Person-Centered - Your internship is customized just like our client care.
