Doctoral Internship Program

Deep Eddy Psychotherapy’s doctoral internship program provides the ultimate private practice capstone experience for your graduate training.

Our program specifically works as an onramp for our Post-doctoral Fellowship – if the internship goes well, we’ll want to keep you!

We offer cutting-edge training in depth-oriented interventions for people across the lifespan.  Our team of expert psychologists is here to provide mentorship, technical training, and guidance in therapy for individuals, couples, and groups.  We also offer opportunities for providing comprehensive assessments through our new and developing assessment program.

Our cohort model creates connection and support as you make the final steps towards licensure.  We ensure that all fellows meet all licensure requirements for practicing psychology in the state of Texas.

Here is a link to our brochure for further details.

Our Ideal Applicant

Our practice is growing in response to demand for high-quality therapy.  So, we hope to invest in clinicians who are interested in staying with us in Austin after their Internship and Postdoc years (if it feels like a good fit).  One of the best parts about working here is our sense of community and connectedness.  Our practice excels at what we do in part because of our support system of colleagues and friends. We hope you get to experience that during the internship and postdoctoral year and make Austin, TX and Deep Eddy your long-term home.

We are particularly interested in applicants who are open to working with clients in the here-and-now, using mindfulness, somatic approaches, or experiential forms of therapy.  Deep Eddy Psychotherapy is home to internationally recognized experts in the practice of depth-oriented psychotherapy and group therapy, and we tend to attract people who are looking to expand their skills in those areas.

We are also hoping to recruit more predoctoral interns who work with kids, teens, and couples, as we often are too full to meet the demand for those services in our community.
