I'm currently on internship at an APA-Accredited university counseling center and recently learned that I am pregnant. My spouse and I are thrilled, and at the same time, I'm also considering how to address this at my internship. I will likely be 22-24 weeks along when internship is scheduled to end, and will not be completing a postdoc during the next training year and I've defended my dissertation.
If you are or have been pregnant while on internship:
How/when did you tell your training director? How did your TD respond? Did the pregnancy impact your ability to complete any internship activities (if at all)? Is there anything else you wish you'd known at the time?
If you are a TD (especially within a UCC setting, or are familiar with UCCs):
Are there specific ways you prefer an intern address a pregnancy during internship?
Thank you!
