Dear Prospective Intern,<\/p>\n
Welcome to the website for the Doctoral Internship at the Johns Hopkins University – Mental Health Services – Homewood Counseling Center! Thank you for considering this program for your capstone training year! Choosing an internship site is both exciting and overwhelming and we are fully aware that so many factors, both personal and professional, go into making the decision about where to apply. We hope the following pages will guide you in that process. Additionally, I want to highlight some important information about our site.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Homewood Counseling Center is located on the Homewood campus of the Johns Hopkins University. We serve undergraduate and graduate students and learners of the university across our Baltimore and Washington, D.C. locations, a population totaling over 6,000 undergrads and 25,000 graduate students. The Doctoral internship has been accredited by the American Psychological Association (Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation, 750 First Street, NE, Washington, D.C. 20002-4242; 202-336-5979) since 2003. We are also accredited by the International Association for Counseling Services (IACS) and are a member of both the Association of Psychology Postdoctoral and Internship Centers (APPIC) and the Association of Counseling Center Training Agencies (ACCTA).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We take pride in our program and the staff\u2019s commitment to training and mentoring a new generation of psychologists. Our training program subscribes to a practitioner-scholar model that emphasizes interns working in apprenticeship relationships with staff who value scientifically guided professional practice. Our model emphasizes training as a process through which interns develop not only the requisite knowledge and skills, but also the sense of professional identity necessary for emerging as professional psychologists. Infused throughout the service delivery model and training activities is a commitment to multiculturalism, diversity, and social justice. We believe in celebrating and honoring our multiple social identities and we recognize the importance of challenging biases and learning from each other. We strive to live out these values in our work with students, community, and each other.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We hope that through your review of the materials, you determine that what our program has to offer is a strong match for your training needs.
