240-hours intensive training + supervised internship with the opportunity to work on real cases with real clients
Most psychology students lack the skills required to work with clients directly and hence organisations are very skeptical of giving students the opportunity to practically work with real clients during internships. This negatively impacts the student’s ability to maximize his/her learnings from the internship.
Extended training has been created to address this issue with classical psychology internships.
In the first phase of the extended training, psychology students receive intensive training in specific therapeutic models that can be used with clients successfully.
In the next phase, the student gets the opportunity to conduct sessions with real clients. The sessions conducted by the psychology interns are supervised and reviewed by a mentor.
This ensures that as a responsible organisation we are not exposing clients to untrained students and at the same time the students joining the internship get practical exposure of working with clients.
If you are not looking for practical experience to work with clients but would like to get better conceptual clarity about certain therapeutic processes and techniques with the help of case discussions, then you should opt for psychology internships.
If you are looking to responsibly work with clients and get your work reviewed by a mentor as a part of your internship then you must opt for extended training.

The extended training program was originally designed keeping in mind the requirements of the students pursuing Masters in Psychology from IGNOU, but if you fall into one of the following categories, you are eligible to join:
We will only be taking a maximum of 30 participants per batch to ensure personalised attention to each participants during training as well as internship
This is a completely online extended training program. The training program will be conducted over zoom, and supervised practice sessions during training will be done in the breakout rooms.
All the activities that need to be completed by participants of this extended training + internship have also been designed such that they can be completed online.
As a part of the internship, you will also be working with clients via zoom (if you have a pro account) otherwise via Google Meet or Jitsi.
The internship component of extended training is free. What you pay (Rs. 8000+Gst) for is the Anxiety Counselling Course that you attend during the first phase of the extended training.
PS: We continue to support our students even after the completion of the training/internships
