CAPS Internship: Clinical, Administrative, and Training Meetings

  • Crisis Services Meeting (as needed): On-call staff and Senior Crisis Consultants meet every Monday & Friday morning at 8:30 a.m. to discuss recent on-call activity. Interns attend that meeting only when beginning or concluding after-hours/weekend on-call shifts.
  • Treatment Team Meeting (1 hour weekly): Each intern is assigned to one of three multidisciplinary treatment teams.  Treatment team members present intake evaluations and psychotherapy cases for peer consultation, as well as discuss psychotherapy/psychiatric co-treatment.

  • Intern Meeting (1 hour weekly, twice per month): Interns meet biweekly as a group with the Training Director in order to discuss how the internship is progressing, to exchange information, and to share aspects of mutual professional development in a group setting. 

  • Intern Support Lunch (1 hour weekly): Interns meet weekly during lunch for the purposes of debriefing, building group cohesion, and/or discussing professional concerns.

  • Individual Intern Meeting (1 hour monthly): Each intern meets individually with the Training Director once per month to discuss progress on training goals, professional development issues and intern cohort related issues.

  • Supervisors’ Meeting (1 hour monthly):  Interns participate in the Supervisors’ meeting on a monthly basis, to discuss progress of their practicum supervisees and receive feedback from those same supervisees from other supervisors and seminar facilitators.

  • Professional Development Luncheon (1 hour monthly): One Intern Meeting per month is devoted to a “Professional Development Luncheon,” in which a psychologist from the community is invited to meet with interns over lunch to discuss the progression of their career from graduate school to present.
