Jefferson Center has two openings for internship placements with our Family Services Outpatient team starting this summer (see full description below). If you are interested, please respond to this email to let me know as soon as possible. I will then forward your application materials to the supervisors for further review. It will be up to the supervisors to determine who to contact for interviews.
Family Services Outpatient (FSOP):
We are a fast paced, high volume outpatient program. We work with clients ages 5-22 and their families. We conduct family, individual and group therapy with a population that is largely lower income families. You will be exposed to a variety of diagnoses, backgrounds, and presenting problems. FSOP is looking for interns who are willing to take initiative, work well on a team, and who are looking for a broad spectrum experience working with youth and their families. The diverse nature of this population (including culture, age, SES, and diagnosis) requires an intern to be versatile in the work that they do. Community Mental Health is a fantastic way to get hands-on experience, and it also holds many challenges. It’s our hope that an intern would be eager to immerse her/himself in the fast paced world of stringent paperwork requirements, working with a myriad of clients, and establishing collaborative partnerships with colleagues, families, and outside systems.
There are two placements available. One will be supervised by Lisel Von Duyke, an LPC with 3+ years of post-master’s experience, in Arvada. One will be supervised Katharine Groehn, and LPC with 3+ years of post-master’s experience, in Wheat Ridge.
