Our training philosophy

The internship provides training within a scientist practitioner model. Accordingly, the internship utilizes data-based diagnostic and treatment procedures that are consistent with basic principles of learning and developmental psychopathology as embodied in the research literature, emphasizing special expertise in cognitive behavioral therapy, applied behavior analysis, child development, and neurodevelopmental disabilities.

Our internship values creating an education and training environment that is inclusive, equitable, and respectful of diversity. We recognize the value diverse interns bring to our internship training community and provide to our patients. We aim to wholistically recruit interns from a wide range of backgrounds.

We partner with Emory University
