      In this internship, I was exposed to the functioning of a pediatric psycho-oncology setup. I also got to know about the IPD & OPD of various hospitals work. It was possible because the NGO has collaborations with various hospitals like AIIMS, Safdarjung, Kalawati Saran Children's Hospital and many more. I also went on round visits within these hospitals and observed how my mentors used to take their sessions in such a setup. Back in the office, I got to learn about various psychological tests like DAPT, CAT & TAT and about different therapies which can be done, like CBT & ACT. Show less
