I honestly don't know, but I'm guessing that they don't offer that here. I apologize! You might want to check out the forums here at 7 Cups.

Yes i believe they do. Asking a listener who has been here for a longer period of time would be a good idea, so they can instruct you as to how to get one and so on.
At this time I believe it is only offered to undergraduate and graduate students. If the student is dual enrolled in high school and junior college perhaps sending them an email or a message requesting if they offer any modification to their policy might be a benefit. The worse they can say is no, and you can try being a listener for a year getting a lot of experience as well as helping some people along the way!
OH my goodness ..not that i'm aware of. However if this is the case, i say EXCELLENET! I think youth needs better control of their minds and emotions
Maybe lol, I don't know for sure but I thought the internships were for college and in some high schools they offer college level courses, I think though that it's for those above high school.
I do not think there is. But listening to other people can make your life experience richer. I hope that helps.

While 7Cups does not have psychology internships for high school students, it is a great place to apply and further a commitment to the well-being of our members and guests.

Yes? I mean it would make sense if it did considering the website is based of listeners helping members and guests.
Yeah it does! There's a section of the website that has an application form for internships, or you can sign up to become an active listener :)
Not that I know about... But I'd love to receive one since i am currently on my second year of high school in Brazil

Yes they do. We would love to have interns here! I know this one girl who is in high school and is a listener here and she does amazing work!
Yes, to become an intern, you need to become a listener and fill in the internship application form.
It does! An explanation can be found under 'internships' under community. 7cups is a great place to gain insight in how to help people (and do so in the process). An internship would be no different, through 7cups you gain experience with people from all walks of life and the problems or struggles they might have. It will teach you how to react accordingly. It will teach you how you can mean a difference to people during a dark, unpleasant or just uneasy hour. Additionally, it'll help you understand yourself better. All of that can be applied to an internship and this is a great place to do that.
YES! We encouage high school students to apply for our intership! You will recieve volunteer hours for the amount of time you spend listening and supporting members on 7Cups and on the intership certificate it will say how many hours you spent on 1-on-1 chats as a listener. It's a wonderful program to give you more insight into the psychology of others and for more information on mental health realated topics! Hope this helps! "\ml/"
yes for ages 16-19 there are opportunities for internships, however advisers/supervisors are not available specifically.

7Cups does offer an internship for those age 16 and above! The country that I live in has high school for students aged 12-16, but I know that countries like America would have high school for students aged 15-18 (if I am not mistaken), so it depends on what high school means in your country:) However, the internship is not exactly a psychology one - I do not study psychology, but am an intern in my last year of high school just so I can gain experience and help others. The certificate you receive at the end of a successful internship will show how many hours you put in and should be useful when applying for future programmes whether they are psychology-related or not:)

yes it does, just join and become a listener, depending upon you age you will either be listening to adults or teens.
7 Cups does have an internship program! Although it is not explicitly for psychology students or high school students, it is a great step for anyone who wants to be involved.

If you are between the ages 16-19 you can get an internship from them. It would be nice to see young students participating in this.

Not that I am aware of, but it most certainly should. Psychology gives you the ability to understand yourself better, as well understand others and how they are feeling. It helps you distinct preception from reality. :)
Yes it does have psychology intern ships for high school students. I can say that because I have seen listeners her which are also interns.
yes

As per I know there is no such program right now but you can always get to the training part to brush up you skills and get a certificate if you are proficient enough.

7 Cups is not a classroom. Do you expect things to be credible on the internet? I don't think so....
I personally am unaware of this. But I do not think 7 cups of tea offers psychology internships. You could try contacting them? Otherwise you can look for other internships at various businesses.
