Supervision

Interns receive a minimum of 2 hours of individual supervision each week from a licensed psychologist at their site. Supplemental weekly individual supervision may be provided by faculty at each site and/or by licensed providers at elective rotation sites. Licensed supervisors provide interns with experientially-based clinical training and direct observation is a component of the supervision and evaluation process.

 

Two hours of required weekly group supervision from a licensed psychologist is conducted with all interns across consortium sites via high quality, secure distance technology. Group supervision focuses on case presentation, professional development, and clinical topics. All interns receive a minimum of 4 hours per week of supervision.

Research

Research opportunities vary by consortium site. Please inquire with Site Directors about current and future research opportunities.

Stipend, Benefits, and Resources

The annual internship stipend across all consortium sites is $30,000. Interns also receive an additional $5,000 housing support in addition to the general stipend.

 

All interns are required by the consortium to have current health insurance coverage. Access to health benefits will be provided to all interns but may vary across sites. Annual PTO will be provided to all interns.

 

With regard to Family and Medical Leave extensions during the internship year, agency parameters will dictate extended leave options. Interns are responsible for discussing leave requests with their supervisor and working in coordination with their agency/site. Not all sites have the ability to provide extensions.

UT-PIC interns have access to numerous resources. Funding for travel within the state of Utah is provided in order for interns to complete required training experiences. Assessment and other training materials are provided by each training site, and additional materials that may be needed may be purchased using Consortium funding with Training Committee approval. Each intern additionally has access to administrative and IT support through their primary training site.
