Research Intern - Calm Clinic

First off, let me just say this internship has been so much fun, and I have met so many amazing people along the way. I have learned so much, and this will be something I reflect on for the rest of my lfie. This internship has benefitted my career in a lot of different ways. Mostly, it has showed me how an actual Psychology Clinic operates, and everything it takes to run one and how much work these providers put in. It has shown me how important it is that people have access to treatment and can afford it, and what I need to do to help people and be successful in this career. This is how it will also continue to benefit my career, as I have met plenty of doctors and have expanded my network tenfold. My internship does tie into my major, as I am majoring in Psychology, and this is a Psychiatric Clinic. I do not think you need that much education beforehand going into this, as long as you are ready to listen and know a little bit of how a computer operates, you should be totally fine! I am still interested in this career, probably even more than before because of this internship. I just saw how much the patients were actually benefitting from the various treatments we provice, and I also want to continue to explore and be able to go into depth about each treatment and how it helps. To secure a full-position, you would either need to have prior experience in TMS treatment, or to be a Physicians Assistant, or to get your doctorate and become a Psychologist/Psychiatrist. Some prior experience would also help, or to be majoring in it, but it isn't exactly necessary. If I had any advice to give to any future interns here, it would be to just listen, and be ready to learn! It is a lot of information to process at first, and can be overwhelming, so just make sure you take everything one thing at a time!
