What Interns are saying

TMW has helped me grow a more profound passion for therapy. The warm and welcoming environment has helped me feel confident in my work as a therapist. This has been my best placement yet, and I am beyond grateful. I was able to work with a variety of populations (individuals, couples, groups) and different ages (7 - 50 years old). Not only did TMW help me develop professionally, but also academically.
