SENS provides an accessible and modern approach to psychology. We are a rapidly growing private practice with offices in three urban areas, as well as a provider of remote psychotherapy services. In addition, we support an online community that provides awareness, education, and support for psychological issues.

We provide training for exceptional and ambitious students looking for a supportive environment with modern opportunities and community engagement! Our flexible program allows for students with unique interests (e.g., trauma, work with children/adolescents, prenatal/postnatal psychology, couples counseling, social justice and advocacy work) to carve out a niche training experience. We provide excellent training and mentorship. In addition, interns have the option to co-create programs, community initiatives and trainings that will boost their resumes, allow them to contribute to the community, and set them apart from other students.

SENS has built a successful practice model based on innovation and a holistic view of health and growth. Beyond gaining simple techniques, our clients are looking to live interesting and authentic lives. Because many of our clients have already had a certain level of success in life, many of the issues that hold them back require a honed approach and advanced skillset to tackle. We value work-life balance and creativity. In return, we provide an environment of support and innovation. If this excites you - we provide an excellent training site.

Positions will be flexible, part-time, and primarily or exclusively remote.
