Our clinical program supports the capacity and confidence of clinical practitioners who will license or have a license in the state of California, issued by the Board of Behavioral Sciences [BBS]. Our focus on clinical development has always prioritized confident private practice skills, anchored in culturally-competent quality-oriented, whole-person mental health services for marginalized communities.
Everyone on our clinical path will be mentored, compensated ethically, and reviewed in alignment with BBS regulations. We have seamless elevations throughout the program, and we support transitions to and from other paths in the clinical journey.
