Intern Testimonials
A few words from our current
and past Interns
“I have found the internship at MPPS to be refreshing, rewarding, and challenging. I found Dr. Saad’s approach refreshing. She genuinely encourages and supports our personal well-being and work-life-balance so that we can bring our best clinical selves to our patients. Additionally, the training is tailored to our interests, i.e. if you want to learn more about CBT you can work with a CBT supervisor. This is one of the many benefits of working with diverse, talented, and experienced team members.”
“One of the most striking things I have observed at MPPS so far is the diversity in the experience and orientation of the psychologists working here and how well they collaborate with each other. Dr. Saad provides an integrative and holistic view that brings different perspectives together to develop them into extremely useful and efficient techniques to be used in our work with patients. Supervision and didactics with Dr. Saad and Dr. Khadivi have been eye-opening, and their unique styles complement each other. ”
“As a psychology intern, I have appreciated the rich training environment at MPSS. Working under the supervision of Dr. Khadivi and Dr. Saad has offered me a diverse educational experience that blends multiple theoretical orientations (CBT, psychodynamic, and DBT) and techniques from Traditional Chinese Medicine. This has made my learning experience as an intern truly unique.”
