In this episode, we discover the many phenomenal training opportunities within Army Psychology! Maybe you have considered pursuing the Army HPSP or you are currently serving and curious if pursuing a career-change to psychology is even possible. Spoiler alert, it absolutely is! We welcome CPT Contessa Tracy (USA) and CPT Thomas Ballas (USA) from the APA accredited internship program at Brooke Army Medical Center, Joint Base San Antonio – Fort Sam Huston. These two talented interns share their training trajectory from graduate school practicum, internship applications, and completing a highly competitive internship program. They discuss various opportunities unique to Army Psychology and what it means to serve as an embedded mental health provider. We also open a unique conversation about supervising paraprofessional staff in the behavioral health field, an important factor of practicing psychology with active duty military units. Lastly, we touch on research opportunities as an Army Research Psychologist (71F).
