Learn it. Together. Thrive Internship Program

Thrive Boulder is proud to be a Medicaid provider. All interns are expected to work with Medicaid clients and maintain timely and professional documentation—including intake interviews, diagnoses, treatment plans, mental status exams, session notes, and termination summaries—using our cloud-based system, Simple Practice.

We are deeply committed to equity and inclusion. Thrive does not discriminate based on race, ethnicity, national origin, gender identity, sexual orientation, immigration status, age, or religion.

Serving our Spanish-speaking community has always been a priority. Spanish-speaking applicants are strongly encouraged to apply early, and we’re always looking to expand this part of our care.

Our team supports clients across the lifespan—children, teens, adults, and couples—through a variety of therapeutic modalities. We give our therapists space to bring their own clinical interests, while also cultivating a shared foundation.

Please note: Thrive does not provide art therapy supervision. If you’re looking for a placement specific to art therapy, our program may not be the right fit.
