Other crucial elements of the tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>clude encourag<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>terns to pursue research <strong>in</strong>terests and help them to develop adm<strong>in</strong>istrativeskills that are necessary <strong>in</strong> the current behavioral health care delivery climate. The <strong>in</strong>ternship iscomprised of three general areas:1) Core Program: Approximately 80% of an <strong>in</strong>tern’s time is devoted to the follow<strong>in</strong>g:• Cl<strong>in</strong>ical service and cl<strong>in</strong>ical tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the Behavioral Health Partial <strong>Hospital</strong> Program (BHP)• Consultation-Liaison (C-L) and cl<strong>in</strong>ical assessment <strong>in</strong> partial hospital and <strong>in</strong>patient sett<strong>in</strong>g• Individual psychotherapy experiences <strong>in</strong> partial hospital, outpatient, and <strong>in</strong>patient sett<strong>in</strong>gs• Group psychotherapy <strong>in</strong> partial hospital and <strong>in</strong>patient sett<strong>in</strong>gs• Comprehensive cl<strong>in</strong>ical tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g and supervision• Cl<strong>in</strong>ical/Academic sem<strong>in</strong>ars and professional development2) Cl<strong>in</strong>ical, Research, and Adm<strong>in</strong>istrative Electives: In addition to the core program, time ismade available to <strong>in</strong>terns to pursue elective tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g opportunities.

Electives are available <strong>in</strong> cl<strong>in</strong>ical, research and adm<strong>in</strong>istrative venues.3) Intern Support: There are a wide variety of significant resources available that are specificallydesigned to support an <strong>in</strong>tern’s professional and personal development.3


CORE PROGRAMI. PARTIAL HOSPITAL TREATMENT: Behavioral Health Partial <strong>Hospital</strong> ProgramA) Overview• The Behavioral Health Partial <strong>Hospital</strong> Program (BHP) is the <strong>in</strong>terns’ primary cl<strong>in</strong>icaltra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g placement (30-35 hours per week). The BHP is an <strong>in</strong>tegrated program that treatspatients from all major diagnostic categories <strong>in</strong> DSM IV. BHP provides sophisticatedpsychosocial and milieu treatments which are empirically <strong>in</strong>formed and adapted to thecurrent practice of behavioral health care. Specialty tracks <strong>in</strong>clude: the Mood and AnxietyProgram (MAP), the Borderl<strong>in</strong>e Personality Disorder Program, and the General AdultPsychiatry Program (GAP) for Bipolar and Psychotic Disorder. Virtually all of the cl<strong>in</strong>icalactivities take place <strong>in</strong> the Behavioral Health Partial Center which also houses <strong>in</strong>tern andcl<strong>in</strong>ical staff offices.• The Behavioral Health Partial <strong>Hospital</strong> Program is a comprehensive service <strong>in</strong>tegral to<strong>McLean</strong>’s system of care. Dur<strong>in</strong>g the past year, there were 800 admissions and 800discharges (60+ admissions per month). The program provides over 100 psychotherapygroups per week. A substantial number of patients are referred from <strong>McLean</strong> <strong>in</strong>patientunits, with the rema<strong>in</strong>der be<strong>in</strong>g referred by other <strong>McLean</strong> programs, local hospitals,community mental health centers, private practitioners, and self-referrals. A small, albeitsignificant, number of patients travel from out of state to <strong>McLean</strong> for specialized treatmentnot available elsewhere.• Interns engage <strong>in</strong> a variety of <strong>in</strong>dividual psychotherapeutic activities: consultation and cl<strong>in</strong>icalassessment, specialized psychosocial treatment, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT),supportive psychotherapy, cl<strong>in</strong>ical adm<strong>in</strong>istration and case management.• Interns often have opportunities to work with families of patients.• Interns play a critical role <strong>in</strong> the BHP consultation-liaison service. They provide cl<strong>in</strong>icalassessments and follow-up treatments. Interns are assigned to a C-L team, which serves astheir “home-base” dur<strong>in</strong>g the tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g year.• Group therapy is a major component of treatment <strong>in</strong> the BHP and here, too, <strong>in</strong>terns play acentral role. They lead and co-lead many of the psychotherapy groups <strong>in</strong> the program.Interns are assigned to groups based on their <strong>in</strong>terests, tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g, and programmatic needs.• Individual and group supervision, co-therapy with senior cl<strong>in</strong>icians, direct observation,<strong>in</strong>service tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g, and case conferences, assist the <strong>in</strong>tern <strong>in</strong> maximiz<strong>in</strong>g the educationalpotential of their BHP cl<strong>in</strong>ical activities.4


• Interns are assigned senior staff to co-lead groups <strong>in</strong> the partial hospital and outpatientservices.• Once <strong>in</strong>terns beg<strong>in</strong> lead<strong>in</strong>g their own groups, supervision is oriented to trouble-shoot<strong>in</strong>g andproblem solv<strong>in</strong>g, and help<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>terns become “grounded” as a group therapist.• As the year progresses, group sem<strong>in</strong>ars cont<strong>in</strong>ue and supervision for specific groups isavailable.• Senior staff members observe <strong>in</strong>terns lead<strong>in</strong>g groups.
