Full Job Description

Who We Are: At JL Family Services, values aren’t slogans - they’re how we live and work. We build genuine relationships, champion inclusion, and deliver care that goes beyond service to create lasting impact. Our team thrives in thoughtfully designed spaces, with holistic support that empowers both staff and clients. Here, we don’t just provide care - we elevate it.

The Role: JL Family Services Ltd. is seeking a compassionate and motivated Therapist Intern to join our mission-driven clinical team. This internship provides an opportunity for emerging clinicians to gain hands-on experience delivering therapeutic services to a diverse community under the guidance of licensed professionals.

As an intern, you will engage in supervised clinical practice, learn to conduct assessments, participate in individual and group therapy sessions, and develop core competencies in evidence-based care, documentation, and ethical practice. This role is ideal for graduate students pursuing counseling, social work, or psychology degrees who are seeking practicum or internship placement.

How You’ll Help:

Conduct mental health assessments and assist in developing individualized treatment plans under supervision.
Provide individual, group, and/or family therapy using approved, evidence-based modalities.
Collaborate with clients to identify goals and monitor progress throughout treatment.
Maintain accurate, confidential clinical documentation in accordance with ethical and legal standards.
Participate in regular supervision, team meetings, and case consultations.
Engage in ongoing training and professional development opportunities.
Support outreach and program initiatives that strengthen community connection and access to care.
Foster a culture of inclusion, empathy, and resilience in all client interactions.

Your Qualifications:

Currently enrolled in a Master’s program in Clinical Psychology, Counseling, Social Work, Marriage and Family Therapy, or a related mental health field.
Eligible for clinical training placement (Practicum or Internship) as part of an accredited academic program.
Strong interest in community mental health and trauma-informed, evidence-based care.
Excellent communication, interpersonal, and organizational skills.
Ability to maintain professionalism, confidentiality, and ethical standards.
Commitment to a flexible schedule that may include evenings or limited weekend hours.

Clinical Expectations:

Minimum of 10–15 direct clinical hours per week, depending on program requirements and client needs.
Participation in weekly supervision with a licensed clinician.
Completion of all documentation and supervision logs as required by both JL Family Services Ltd. and your academic institution.

What You’ll Gain:

Supervised experience in a supportive, trauma-informed practice setting.
Opportunities to develop therapeutic, assessment, and case management skills.
Exposure to diverse client populations and presenting concerns.
Mentorship and professional guidance from experienced clinicians.
Fulfillment of required clinical hours toward degree completion or licensure eligibility.

JL Family Services Ltd. is an equal opportunity employer and training site committed to diversity, inclusion, and professional growth. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds who share our dedication to compassionate, client-centered care.
