Why seeing a student therapist might be one of the best decisions you make:
There’s a big myth when it comes to working with student or intern therapists — that it means less experience, less insight, or a watered-down version of therapy.
But what many people don’t see is what’s happening behind the scenes — and that’s where the real strength of working with an intern therapist comes in.
You’re getting two minds, not one.
When you work with an intern therapist, you’re not just getting their support — you’re also getting the guidance of their clinical supervisor and consultation team.
That means your care is being thoughtfully reviewed and supported by experienced, licensed professionals.
They’re bringing the most current knowledge.
Intern therapists are actively learning, immersed in the latest research, and trained in current, evidence-based approaches.
They’re intentional, curious, and deeply engaged in doing the work well.
They’re putting in extra time.
Intern therapists often spend additional time preparing for sessions, reviewing cases, and making sure they’re offering meaningful tools and support.
There’s a level of dedication that can feel incredibly personal.
You’re part of something meaningful.
Intern therapists are learning how to show up, connect, and serve their communities. They carry a strong sense of responsibility and show up with heart, effort, and a genuine desire to grow into therapists who make an impact.
And let’s talk about accessibility.
One of the biggest benefits of working with an intern therapist is cost. Sessions are often offered at a reduced rate, making therapy more financially accessible while still providing high-quality care.
At the end of the day, therapy isn’t about titles — it’s about connection, care, and your growth.
We currently have low-cost sessions for $90 with our intern, Feden Abeda, with no wait times available.
