Succeeding in Your Psychotherapy Practicum and Internship is a book about what students can often expect from their psychotherapy internship and how they can make the most of their experience.

The book is written from two perspectives—one, that of a seasoned therapist, professor, and supervisor of therapy, and two, the perspective of a registered intern therapist who just went through the internship process. Succeeding in Your Psychotherapy Practicum and Internship covers the basics of psychotherapy internships, from the beginning stages of finding and starting at an internship site, to navigating the common experiences at an internship, to reflecting on therapeutic growth and the ending of an internship, and much more. Students will come away from this book with a deep understanding of each perspective, one that will enhance their appreciation of the practicalities and possibilities of their practicum and internship experiences.
