HEADSPACE CARE TRAINING INSTITUTE

Training coaches and clinicians dedicated to the future of mental health.

Through multidisciplinary collaboration, we aim to train the next generation of coaches and therapists to deliver care in our unique, rapidly-growing telemental health space. Our skilled faculty and supervisors are committed to providing high-quality training, support, and mentorship, based on a foundation of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging.
ABOUT HEADSPACE CARE

Multidisciplinary Team-Based Care Model

Headspace Care is a mental health platform providing coaches, therapists, psychiatrists, and invaluable in-app content.

Members use text-based chat to interact with a coach who guides their personal and professional development. For extra support, a therapist and/or psychiatrist can be added to the care team. Therapists are licensed clinicians who provide empirically-supported teletherapy, and a licensed psychiatrist steps in when medication is required. This innovative care model is making delivery of mental healthcare scalable and accessible to people worldwide.

“This program has really fit perfectly into my life both working full-time and with my personal responsibilities. I am very grateful and know it is helping me to be a better coach.”

“I have found that this 10-month program was not just a program for me, it was a journey. And it was a journey that I did not know I needed to take. And one that quite honestly I was not prepared for because in working through how to coach others, I in turn was coached by an amazing cohort of people…I knew who I was, but I am grounded in who I am now.”

“You’re going to be a better listener, a better communicator, you’re going to be more empathetic, and the big aha for me was not just how I get to apply learning in my vocation professionally but how I can apply it in my personal life daily, how it makes me a better person, better in my marriage, a better communicator with relationships with other individuals. I wasn’t expecting that.”

CLINICAL TRAINING PROGRAMS

Psychology postdoctoral fellowship and practicum

The Headspace Training Institute’s clinical training programs provide a professional and comprehensive training experience for doctoral-level psychology trainees. We are committed to providing outstanding training, supervision, and mentorship to future psychologists, with particular emphasis on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging as aspects of anti-racist and culturally responsive care.

At Headspace we are committed to creating a world where mental healthcare is accessible to all, and where socioeconomic status and social determinants of health are no longer obstacles to high quality care. Our professional training program provides an immersive experience that not only allows trainees to hone their skills in teletherapy, but also allows opportunities to advance their skills within the context of our measurement based, collaborative care model. Trainees in our program gain experience collaborating with professionals across the organization and have opportunities to learn about the variety of functions within a digital health company.

Institute Postdoctoral Fellows

“Something that I absolutely LOVED about HTI's training program is the emphasis in DEIB. Culturally responsive care was emphasized in case consultation, postdoc seminar, clinical work with members, and individual/group meetings with my peers, colleagues, supervisors, and directors of various Headspace functions.”
