Job Overview

Job Description

Sports Psychology Careers Internship in Detroit, Michigan Connecting People to Purpose
Location: Remote (open to applicants in Detroit, MI and nationwide)

REBUILT BLOCK BY BLOCK, SEASON BY SEASON
Detroit's Lions, Tigers, Pistons, and Red Wings play downtown in a district reconstructed the way athletes reconstruct themselves: patiently, with support. Wayne State prepares health professionals nearby, and youth leagues nurture talent metro wide.

PICK YOUR STARTING LINE
Step One presents two beginnings: become an academic intern for credit through your school, or volunteer, or enroll in the School for Humans Flourishing, where your own concept gets room to develop.

PROGRESS THAT CONSISTENCY UNLOCKS
Step Two belongs to interns who demonstrate success, reliable, consistent, and living the Five Principles. The sequence pays Leadership Fellows at $25 to $35 per hour first, then consultants at $50 to $100 per hour.

A GROWING PROFESSION, FOUR DISTINCT TRADES
Sports psychology is a fast-growing field where mental health meets athletic performance; athletes at every level now learn that mental training matters just as much as physical training. Meet its four career paths. A Clinical Sports Psychologist treats anxiety and injury grief, after a doctorate and licensure. A Performance Consultant sharpens routines for decisive moments. Academic & Research Roles teach and generate evidence at universities. Youth & Community Coaching works in gyms and neighborhoods. All share six skills: Mental Performance Training, Emotional Resilience Building, Injury & Recovery Support, Team Dynamics & Leadership, Goal Setting & Motivation, and Confidence & Focus Coaching.

THE COHORT'S WEEKLY ASSIGNMENTS
Interns study each trade, research textbooks against locker room realities, practice content creation for general audiences, lead community education, and pursue purpose connection.

STANDARDS WE PRACTICE DAILY
Our compass is 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.

FOR BUILDERS AT ANY STARTING POINT
Counseling, social work, health sciences, and exercise science students will recognize the material, yet athletes, trainers, and writers are equally invited; no prior psychology coursework is demanded.

NUTS, BOLTS, AND CALENDAR
Voice Up Publishing Incorporated posts this internship. Expect eight weeks, remote and flexible at five to fifteen hours a week, inside a national cohort online, with no local office or partnership claimed. New cohorts begin on the first of each month, and current students may also undertake paid special projects at $20 to $30 per hour.

SHARE THE COMEBACK THAT SHAPED YOU
