Announcements

Available to doctoral students in APA-accredited graduate programs in clinical, combined school-clinical, counseling or school psychology who have completed their course work (and passed their comprehensive exams), Green Chimneys’ Clinical Psychology Internship is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of the American Psychological Association.
The internship has two primary goals: to train interns to become competent clinicians and to prepare them to function as professional psychologists in a clinical, community or school setting. Reaching these goals includes developing and augmenting existing skills in diagnostic interviewing, treatment planning, school consultation, psychotherapy and psychological assessment. Interns further develop their ability to interact with other professionals as members of an interdisciplinary team. They also gain skills in working with schools and community agencies. Additionally, interns are exposed to general professional issues including cultural diversity and ethical functioning.

Training Curriculum for Clinical Psychology Interns:
Jacob sheep are small, horned, black and white sheep which the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy has listed the North American population as a conservation priority. The breed produces a medium fleece which is sought after by hand spinners. Ziggy and her twin sister Rita were born in 2008 and are among a small herd of Jacobs that live at Green Chimneys. From gentle sheep, children learn valuable life lessons in kindness, patience, consistency and love.
