Interviews
Candidates selected for an interview will be contacted by email or phone. We believe that a face-to-face interview may be beneficial in arriving at a mutual decision about selection. If it is not possible to interview in person, a phone interview will be set up instead. At this time, the candidate will also be invited to submit a sample of his/her psychotherapy work. This can be in the form of an audio or video recording of an actual client. If that cannot be provided, then a role play of a therapy session with a friend or colleague may be substituted. If you choose a role play, please ask a friend/colleague to play an actual problem they might be experiencing. Do not make up a scenario (i.e., your colleague pretends to play an 18 year old college freshman failing a course). It tends to come across as insincere and does not allow for a natural flow in the session. Make sure your recording is clear and audible. Do not send recordings that are difficult to hear. For a candidate's dossier to be complete, some work sample, whether actual or role play, is a requirement.
