This assignment invites you to leverage evidence‑based approaches, strengthen therapeutic alliances, and mentor peers while expanding your clinical repertoire in a thriving New England community.

Massachusetts is a tapestry of history, natural beauty, and vibrant culture. From the Connecticut River Valley’s leafy charm to the rolling hills of the nearby Berkshires and the coastlines not far away, the state offers enriching experiences outside the hospital walls.
