Cleveland is among the largest Medical Centers in the country and the Parma Outpatient Clinic is a brand new facility with a large mental health department.
Psychology Interns are involved with a weekly introductory transdiagnostic ACT group and also an ACT psychotherapy group for men who have experienced sexual trauma. They can employ ACT individually with a wide range of clients and have the opportunity to design and implement any specialty group intervention of interest. We also maintain a full DBT program available to Interns.
Trainees could request a full four-month clinical rotation with an experienced ACT provider with an option to continue for the full year in a Clinical Enrichement of up to eight hours weekly. Multiple ACT- and DBT-trained providers are part of the clinical milieu.
