Behavioral Health Clinic Internship

The Behavioral Health Clinic in Boys Town, Nebraska internship would be a great opportunity for me and my career. This internship would give me the experience I need for my job in psychology and sociology. Ever since I was a little girl I have always wanted to help people. Upon graduating college I will have a bachelor’s degree in both psychology and sociology. I am excellent with talking to people and comforting them, especially kids. While I was in high school and college I babysat and was a Certified Nurse’s Assistant. This taught me how to take care of people and be there for them through their time of need. Also, it taught me responsibility, you have to be able to talk to the families while they are in need. I would be an asset to this internship because I will be able to help the young teens with their problems and give them a sense of trust.
I am easy to build a relationship with and these teens would feel comfortable with me and I could help get them back on the right track.
In addition, I am an excellent problem solver. If there is a problem with a client I throw all of my resources to come to a solution. From this internship I would gain the experience of being in the behavioral health field. I would be prepared for my future in the behavioral health field. Also this would give me the experience I need with youths that are in the clinic for behavior problems. This internship would also give me the workplace experience that I would need to know for a job in my field. In the end I think I would bring great qualities to this internship as well as I would take away an amazing experience and
opportunity.
