Internship & Practicum Opportunities

Behavioral Health Behavioral Health

At Princeton House Behavioral Health, we offer practicum opportunities for students based on the availability of supervision and the best fit between the student and the program. The majority of our treatment is provided in a group format, although there may be some opportunities to participate in individual and family sessions as well. 

Please note that we do not offer any paid practicum positions.

Please note that our APA-accredited psychology internship will not be taking applications for the coming year.

Types of internships available:

  • Social work
  • Counseling
  • Masters of Applied Psychology
  • Art Therapy
  • Music Therapy
  • Dance/Movement Therapy
  • Recreational Therapy

If you are an undergraduate student, please apply through our volunteer services.
