A Family Therapy Internship in an Agency Setting

Bryce Laraway

Stetson University

Family therapy master’s-level students from CACREP-accredited programs are required to complete a calendar year clinical internship. Students are unprepared typically for these rigorous demands. The literature provides little information about these internship experiences. In this article, two master’s-level marriage and family therapists summarize their professional and personal experiences in their internships located within a community agency setting in the hope of stimulating other interns to provide feedback to their internship sites and graduate programs about their clinical training and the extent to which the programs prepared them for their marriage and family therapy careers. The authors contend that this feedback would strengthen both the university and the clinical agency programs.
