This internship contributed enormously to both my personal and professional development
September 04, 2025by: Shonda RossmanProgram: Top Psychology Internships in Zanzibar!This internship contributed enormously to both my personal and professional development. Personally, it pushed me outside my comfort zone and strengthened my adaptability, cultural awareness, and resilience in new environments. Professionally, I gained hands-on experience in diverse mental health services, from conducting assessments and follow-ups to assisting in the methadone clinic and supporting patients in recovery. Working in a low-resource setting also taught me to be creative, resourceful, and collaborative in problem-solving.
The internship also taught me many lessons
August 06, 2025by: Gemma NormanProgram: Top Psychology Internships in Zanzibar!Learning and experiencing a new culture was amazing! The lifestyle change was a great experience, meeting locals and local children was mostly welcomed. Zanzibar itself was an amazing island and I thoroughly enjoyed my free time with other interns exploring. The internship also taught me many lessons and I will use the knowledge gained in my work and career.
I really enjoyed meeting other interns and gaining new friends
