Coach Testimonials

In the internship period, I have learnt more about myself and how I can grow than I would have in any internship experience.

My experience with Overcome has far exceeded my expectations. What I enjoy most about this program is the supportive and collaborative environment. The team fosters a culture where learning from one another and working towards shared goals is highly encouraged. I've appreciated how the program allows us to progress at our own pace while still pushing us to challenge ourselves and grow.

I'm so glad that I joined Overcome for the experience, but also for the friends, and I can't thank Overcome enough for allowing me to experience this!

My goal was to continue volunteering for Overcome for a year. And I have been given the opportunity to do this. Now I am able to further refine the skills I have learned and continue to see new clients. I am excited to continue this role part time as I seek to continue my studies with a masters in mental health. I am eager to be able to apply the knowledge I will gain from my studies to my role in Overcome.

I have learnt so much during my time at Overcome, the time flew by. My confidence and self-esteem to be able to coach clients has grown massively over the course of the last few months. I have developed so many new skills and now feel this field is the right field for me. I would recommend this internship to others who also want to work in clinical or counselling psychology.

My experience was amazing! I have recommended it to all my friends that also wish to pursue a career in Psychology because the training and, overall, experience has been very beneficial.

I have already recommended this internship to others I know who are currently pursuing Psychology. I will forever be grateful for this experience.

Overcome is an amazing opportunity for anyone who is struggling with the job search and really wants to start practicing what they've learned during their studies.

I really enjoy that the co-founders aren't shy to ask a lot of us but will also take time to work/meet directly with us. This ensures the maximum improvement, and I felt very confident in my growth and skills thanks to that. And of course, I loved the kinds of people I ended up working with as co-interns: really great folks!
