Dear Recipient Name:
It is with great pleasure that I submit this formal letter of interest for the Marriage and Family Therapist Intern position offered at your clinic.
As a student in the Masters of Science in Counseling/Marriage, Family and Child Therapy program, at University of Phoenix with a focus on pursuing a career in Marriage and Family Counseling, I believe my background and qualifications would make me a perfect fit for your short term position as a Helper Coordinator. Under the supervision of Judith Greer Essex, I succeeded in assisting with the provision of comprehensive therapy services to patients in recovery, including identifying their goals and needs, uncovering techniques and ideas to encourage communication and reflection, and maintaining detailed and confidential patient records. My ability to connect with individuals and establish trusting relationships, along with my strong communication and assessment capabilities, position me to thrive in this challenging internship role and acquire valuable practicum experience.
Furthermore, my experiences volunteering for a variety of nonprofit agencies have instilled in me the desire to give back to the community. Specifically, I have become more adept at interacting with clients from a variety of backgrounds and have developed a passion for helping in my community.
I believe that I have the professional and personal characteristics to be a successful contributor and team member at the Pepperdine Community Counseling Clinic. I welcome the opportunity to discuss my qualifications with you in person. If you have any questions or require any additional information, please feel free to contact me at 444-444-4444. Thank you for your time and consideration; I look forward to hearing from you.
Respectfully,
