## Structure of Training

Our fellowship helps you build psychotherapy caseloads, take on assessments and assume increasing responsibilities. You’ll gain hands-on experience by observing and co-leading services with preceptors. During the program, you’ll set goals, receive supervision, attend a year-long seminar, participate in case conferencing and explore additional training opportunities.
