PROFESSIONAL TRAINING PROGRAM

Anew Day continues to grow in our Professional Training program. We have positions open for MFT/PCC/CSW Trainees and Associates. These positions can be full or part time. The Associate position is a paid position but the Trainee position is not. There is flexibility in scheduling for both Associates and Trainees and we are happy to accommodate those who might want to commute from one or more hours away and work a full day in order to manage time more efficiently and accumulate the hours needed to fulfill the MFT/PCC/CSW requirements.

 

Anew Day provides clients, office space and clinical supervision by a license Marriage and Family Therapist and we are willing to work with different university graduate programs to insure Trainees obtain all verification necessary. We provide the same support for Associates working towards licensure.

 

Anew Day serves the general population in the Grass Valley/Nevada City areas. Both Associates and Trainees will be working with children of all ages, couples, families and individuals and there will be a wide range of clinical issues that you will encounter. Anew Day is a faith based counseling agency with a supportive staff and great office environment. If you are an individual looking for this kind of opportunity to complete your practicum or internship, please consider being a part of our team.

 

ASSOCIATE

Anew Day has positions open for MFT/PCC/CSW internships. As stated above, our staff can be flexible in the scheduling while ramping up a client load. At least one group supervision is required and those are at fixed times but individual supervisions can be scheduled with some flexibility.

​

TRAINEE

Anew Day has positions open for MFT/PCC/CSW trainees who are looking for practicum sites. Anew Day is an approved practicum site for several universities including Western Seminary, CSUS Sacramento and National University. Once your practicum is completed, there is also an opportunity to continue on for as a full or part time MFT/PCC/CSW Associate once your degree is granted and you have been assigned your intern number by the California Board of Behavioral Sciences.

 

Each day our staff of Anew Day fills the need of the community for a caring compassionate person to be there when life becomes painful and overwhelming. Our vision is to continue to expand to accommodate that need and to work with public and private agencies and entities in order to promote the psychological and emotional welfare of all.

"I was fortunate to gain all of my clinical hours from trainee-to-intern at Anew Day. Anew Day offers an amazing and rewarding opportunity for MFT Interns and Trainees to gain hours of experience and to gain rich experience within those hours. Anew Day provides a multifaceted cultural and socioeconomic client base including children, adolescents, families, adults, and couples with which to develop a well-rounded clinical training. The clinical supervision I received was professional, warm, enjoyable, and challenging. The supervisors challenged me to always consider the therapeutic direction I was taking with a client, my diagnosis of the client and, for me, my time management. Supervision was consistently professional with plenty of encouragement and direction and was done with the client's best interests in mind. We shared a lot of laughter also as we collaborated together in supervisory groups. I am so thankful for the training I received at Anew Day. The facility at Anew Day has several individual and couples counseling rooms, group and family counseling rooms, and a dedicated Sand Tray room. It is a friendly and encouraging atmosphere located in beautiful Nevada City which allows for a delightful in-between-clients walking environment."
