Previous interns and what they say about their time at MAP

Isaac Lee – 2018 graduate – My time at MAP was invaluable, rewarding, educational and one of the best experiences of my life. I’m so grateful for the opportunity I had to work with everyone involved with the low cost service, especially the wonderful clients. 

Karen Fisher– 2019 graduate- MAP provided me the opportunity to grow and gain confidence as a psychologist in an incredibly supportive environment. I realise now since qualifying and working in private practice how grateful I am for the experience, education, skills, support and supervision I gained  during that time.

Fabiola Leon– 2019 graduate- I will be always grateful to MAP, my supervisors and colleagues for supporting and encouraging me to get to where I am now. My time there was rewarding, I got to know great people (clients, co-workers and supervisors) and learned many important lessons whilst being in a easygoing and supporting environment. 

Harpreet Deol- 2019 graduate- working as intern at MAP shaped my basic skills to a whole new level. It helped independent learning while improving my professional efficacy. I loved the flexibility in providing long term treatment with no limitations on session numbers. So grateful to work with the lovely supportive team 🙂
