Aims and Competencies of the Training Program

 The aim of our internship training program is for interns to begin developing knowledge and expertise that supports their transition into becoming clinical psychologists, as well as gain specific experience in using empirically guided therapy for OCD and Its Related Disorders. Our training is consistent with the scientist practitioner model of the American Psychological Association, encouraging interns to participate in the Institute’s ongoing clinical research, familiarize themselves with the relevant scientific literature, and conduct ongoing assessment of services within existing and new literature findings. The program focuses on both the clinical and personal growth of interns, so they may provide a comprehensive, compassionate, and empirically validated standard of care in their careers. In addition, the program ensures that interns are exposed and evaluated to all nine professional wide competencies set forth by the APA.
