Why Intern with Victor?

Victor has been a catalyst to improving the lives of others for over 50 years and provides some of the best training one can obtain in the clinical realm. As an Intern you are brought into the organization as an integrated part of the staff and receive desk space, computer, phone, etc., and are assigned a Clinical Supervisor and a Mentor to ensure you have adequate access to support and supervision. In the first 30 days our interns complete training and orientation and begin shadowing with various supervisors and staff to help them build connections throughout the agency.

Interns are thoroughly trained on (though not limited to) clinical documentation, diagnosis, assessment, treatment planning, CANS, progress note writing, case management, referring to other services, crisis intervention, treatment practices, mandated reporting, lethality assessment, HIPAA, and more. After extensive didactic training, you would then shadow staff for various session types. Once training and shadowing have been completed, you receive your first referrals. Supervisors/mentors assist along the way providing in-vivo supervision. Caseloads vary depending on individual interns.

Our interns are delivering clinical services within 30 to 60 days depending on the site and program and managing a caseload with increasing independence as they move into their second semester, while consistently utilizing case consultation and supervision. Every student intern has always met or exceeded their required client contact hours in our programs.

If you’re ready to be a part of an organization that values collaboration, empathy, and transformative change, we invite you to explore our internship opportunities. Join our mission of empowering families and together, let's create a brighter and more promising future for those in need.
