Clinical Psychology Doctoral Externships and Undergraduate Internships

Undergraduate Internships

In the 2025 Spring Semester, we are piloting a program to help undergraduate students match to Clinical  Internships for 1 to 2 days per week. We want the internships to be part-time jobs with a salary or a stipend ($1,000 to $5,000) for the 15-week semester. These internships are designed to help students make progress toward a Virginia Qualified Mental Health Professional Certificate which requires a bachelor’s degree in a human service major and 1,500 hours with clients who have diagnosed disorders.
