Internship Programs

The CAMH APA/CPA Internship Program provides clinical training in the context of a scientist-practitioner (Boulder) model. Interns are expected to think critically about the services that they offer to individuals and to make clinical decisions based on objective data collected in the therapeutic/assessment context and informed by empirical research.

For the 2007-2008 academic year there are a total of eight internship positions. Psychology interns at CAMH are assigned to two major rotations that occur concurrently throughout the year. In addition, interns may seek additional training opportunities through informal minor rotations with other supervisors at CAMH.

The Internship runs from September 1 2007 to August 31 2008.

Applications are due November 15th, 2006.

Post-Graduate Studies

• Postgraduate Year 1 Psychiatry Resident Training in Addiction Psychiatry
  Currently, the PGY I Addiction Psychiatry training consists of a four-week rotation. This is part of a 3 month block of psychiatry training that also includes Emergency Psychiatry and Consult Liaison Psychiatry. The overall the focus is on the developmental needs of the Resident i.e. developing core competencies of understanding the basics of addiction medicine and psychiatry, how to manage acute states of intoxication and withdrawal, approaches to treatment (e.g. pharmacology and motivational enhancement techniques), and experiencing different settings for treatment intensity (e.g. withdrawal management units, day treatment programs, out-patient clinics etc). Exposure to the above with processing from supervisors will focus on developing professional attitudes and behaviours for dealing with addiction.
