Once an Intern, Always Part of the Team
From the Harper Therapy Group Team
At Harper Therapy Group, interns aren’t just passing through—they’re a vital part of our team. Each of us has walked the path from early service-learning projects to full internships, balancing three days a week of clinical work alongside classes, jobs, family responsibilities, and the ongoing challenge of self-care. We understand firsthand the dedication, resilience, and heart it takes to reach graduation—and our entire team is cheering you on every step of the way.
We’re proud and excited to introduce our 2025–2026 Intern Cohort, featured below. Over the coming year, they’ll be taking on referrals, intake calls, exploring the Fairfax City community, and discovering how they can make a meaningful impact. This group will also be engaging in social justice work, meeting with clients, running groups, and much more. We’re honored to have them as part of the Harper Therapy Group family.
Beneath this year’s cohort, you’ll also find reflections from our former interns—words of wisdom, encouragement, and real experiences left for future cohorts. These messages speak to their personal and professional growth, the learning process, the team culture, and the moments that brought clarity and confidence. We hope their stories offer you a meaningful glimpse into what it’s like to be part of this community.
Most importantly, we hope these messages remind you:
You’re not alone on this journey.
You belong here.
You’re capable.
And you’re doing important, transformative work—one step at a time.
You've got this.
