Job Overview

Job Description

Sports Psychology Careers Internship in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Connecting People to Purpose
Location: Remote (open to applicants in Philadelphia, PA and nationwide)

NO ONE LIKES US, AND THE MIND DOES NOT CARE
Philadelphia fans are hard on their teams, an honest place to study pressure. The Eagles, Phillies, 76ers, and Flyers perform under a slow-forgiving spotlight; Penn, Temple, Drexel, Jefferson train clinicians, researchers. Interns study professionals helping athletes survive such spotlights and quieter inner pressure. Remote, national cohort online, no local office or partnership is claimed.

WHAT THE INTERNSHIP COVERS
Sports psychology is a fast-growing field where mental health meets athletic performance; mental training now earns physical training's seriousness. Four paths: Clinical Sports Psychologist, Performance Consultant, Academic & Research Roles, Youth & Community Coaching. Academic and research roles build university knowledge; youth and community coaching starts in schools and neighborhoods.

SIX SKILLS, PHILADELPHIA-TESTED
Six core skills: Mental Performance Training, Emotional Resilience Building, Injury & Recovery Support, Team Dynamics & Leadership, Goal Setting & Motivation, Confidence & Focus Coaching. Also written: Injury and Recovery Support, Team Dynamics and Leadership, Goal Setting and Motivation, Confidence and Focus Coaching.

THE WEEKLY WORK, BROADLY
Weeks mix path study, career research, skills practice, athlete and coach listening, content creation, community education sharing discoveries, and purpose connection linking the profession to purpose and the Five Principles.

WHO SHOULD APPLY
Psychology, counseling, social work, public health, exercise science, sport management students, plus coaches, athletes. No degree required.

WHAT YOU WILL GAIN
Accurate explanations of four careers, command of six skills, guidance skills for young athletes' families, and a finished content piece.

THE FIVE PRINCIPLES
The internship is grounded in the Five Principles of Voice Up: Collaboration (all are welcome), Humility (we all have much to learn), Precision (all the details matter), Patience (we all need forgiveness; we all make mistakes and learn from each), Empathy (we must understand your why). This is how Voice Up has achieved what it has to date.

STEP ONE: TWO WAYS TO BEGIN
Join as an academic intern for credit through your school, or start as a volunteer, or enroll in the School for Humans Flourishing.

STEP TWO: WHERE STEADY WORK LEADS
Interns who demonstrate success, reliable, consistent, and living the Five Principles, qualify for Leadership Fellows at $25 to $35 per hour first, then consultants at $50 to $100 per hour.

DETAILS
Eight weeks, remote and flexible, five to fifteen hours a week, national cohort online. Paid special projects at $20 to $30 per hour offered. New cohorts begin on the first of each month. Voice Up Publishing Incorporated posts this internship.
