THIS PLACEMENT IS ONLY FOR PHD LEVEL STUDENTS

Thank you for visiting the Northeast Tennessee Psychology Internship Consortium (NETPIC). 

Our primary purpose is to provide quality clinical training to psychology doctoral students as they experience the diversity of working within a school system and a community mental health center with a population of rural/small urban students and families. NETPIC provides interns with the training experience of learning school psychologist services, behavioral assessment and intervention services, school-based mental health services, comprehensive evaluations, and school-based programs at the Bristol Tennessee City Schools training site as well the training experience of clinic-based community mental health treatment services at Frontier Health’s Holston Children and Youth Services clinic and Frontier Health’s Forensic and Assessment Services clinic in Kingsport, Tennessee.

Interns operate as integral members of their respective sites and provide a broad range of clinical services to underserved individuals. Interns in NETPIC will grow their confidence in providing generalist clinical services and working in the context of multidisciplinary teams.
