The School Psychology Internship

"The second edition of The School Psychology Internship: A Guide for Interns and Supervisors is a must have for graduate students, university faculty and internship site supervisors in school psychology. This pragmatic and comprehensive book will serve as a road map for navigating all aspects of the internship experience. The book covers all relevant aspects of the school psychology internship experience, from the application process, to all phases of the internship year, culminating in the important developmental stage of transitioning from an intern to an early career professional. The second edition offers updated and pertinent content specific to the nuts and bolts tasks for creating an effective internship plan, contemporary research in school psychology supervision and understanding the APPIC application/match from a school psychology lens. This is a resource that is a "must have" for graduate students in school psychology and all those engaged in training school psychology interns in universities and applied practice settings." — Pamela Fenning, PhD, ABPP, Professor, School Psychology Program, Loyola University Chicago, USA

"The internship is likely the most critical phase in the pre-service, professional preparation of school psychologists. Danny Newman’s book treats the internship as a dynamic, formative experience rather than as a single event, and provides excellent guidance for the entire process. I highly recommend his book for school psychology graduate students preparing for their own internships, faculty involved in designing program internship options, and professionals in the field involved in internship planning and/or supervision." — Joe Prus, Ph.D., NCSP, Professor and Co-Director, Winthrop University School Psychology Program, USA

"Dr. Newman provides a thoughtful framework to proactively maximize the internship experience from beginning to end. The guiding questions throughout help focus the reader on the shared responsibility the intern, field supervisor and university supervisor have in this critically important training experience." — Karen Monahan, Ph.D., NCSP, Coordinator of Psychological & Related Services, Fort Mill School District, South Carolina, USA

"The school psychology internship experience produces a mixture of excitement and stress, which culminates with entry into early career school psychology practice. Dr. Newman’s book helps interns and supervisors navigate the journey of applying to internship sites, learning during the internship year, and preparing for the job hunt. This is a great resource for developing school psychologists and enhancing internship programs." — Benjamin S. Fernandez, MS Ed., Coordinator, Prevention Services, Loudoun County Public Schools, Virginia, USA
