Doctoral Psychology Internship Program

Thank you for your interest in the Doctoral Psychology Internship Program (DPIP) at Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center (DCAC). We are thrilled with the inquiries we have received about our internship positions for the 2023-2024 training year! The DPIP at DCAC is a mighty (and small) training program. As of October 1, 2022, one of our current psychologists will be shifting to part-time work through the rest of the 2022-2023 training year before she pursues new adventures this summer.

As such, another full-time psychologist will need to be hired to share the training responsibilities for the DPIP for the 2023-2024 training year. In all likelihood, that psychologist will not be hired by the time most applications are due for review before the Phase I ranking deadline; therefore, the DPIP at DCAC will not be participating in the Match for Phase I. As we have more information regarding the hiring process and our participation in the Match, we will post information on our website, on the APPIC Directory, and through the Late-Breaking Internship Program Updates via the MATCH-NEWS email list. The internship program brochure from the 2022-2023 training year is still available below if you are interested in learning about the program we have built.

In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact the Director of Clinical Training, Elena Doskey de Lobón, at edoskey@dcac.org.
