Graduate-Level Mental Health Intern (School Psychology, School Counseling)

Job Summary

Wheatland Union High School District, in partnership with Plumas Lake Unified School District and Wheatland School District, is seeking passionate and dedicated Mental Health Interns for the 2026-2027 school year. This is a unique, tri-district collaborative internship designed to provide graduate students with rich, hands-on experience in TK-12 school settings across participating districts.


This is a stipend-based position, with compensation ranging from $16,000-$25,000 annually (based on the number of field placement days), paid in two installments throughout the school year. To be eligible, applicants must be currently enrolled in an accredited graduate program in one of the following fields: Master of Social Work (MSW), Master's in Counseling (School Counseling or Clinical/Rehabilitation Counseling), School Psychology, or Marriage & Family Therapy (MFT).

Interns will be placed at school sites within the three participating districts and will receive both clinical and/or PPS credential supervision to support their licensure and credentialing goals.


This internship offers meaningful experience across individual and group counseling, crisis response, case management, family support, behavioral interventions, and multi-tiered systems of support - all within a collaborative, student-centered environment. We believe in - and live by - our motto: Every day, every child, whatever it takes. If you share that commitment, we invite you to join our team and make a lasting impact on the students and families we serve.
