Sobre o programa

INLEX has established links with a selection of associations located in Guatemala which offer psychological aid to those with limited financial means. These people come from many backgrounds, such as educational, psychological, those subjected to mistreatment and multiple other circumstances that necessitate psychological support. Additionally, Guatemala is faced with numerous socio-economic issues that have a huge effect on the mental health of its citizens. 

By taking part in a psychology internship in Guatemala, you will be presented with the chance to collaborate with individuals and societies in need, applying your abilities and knowledge to bring about a positive change. This on-the-job experience will not only upgrade your professional development but also give you the capability to handle mental health problems from an international viewpoint.

Gaining practical insight: Participating in various facets of psychology practice, such as assessments and counseling, will offer you a hands-on experience that will broaden your understanding of psychology and help you cultivate necessary skills.

Collaborating with professionals: Working alongside experienced psychologists and other healthcare experts will provide an opportunity to benefit from their knowledge and advice.

Cultural immersion: Being in Guatemala will let you immerse yourself in the local culture and customs. You will get the chance to interact with the locals and gain understanding of their perspectives on mental health and psychology.

Diverse and demanding cases: Guatemala has various socio-economic issues that affect mental health, and as an intern, you might come across a wide variety of psychological disorders and complicated cases. This exposure will enhance your clinical abilities and capacity to adjust to different circumstances.

Personal growth and introspection: Being in a foreign country provides personal growth prospects. You will acquire resilience, adaptability, and cross-cultural communication skills. This journey will require you to move out of your comfort zone and expand your worldview.

Conheça seu anfitrião

Integrated Learning Experiences’ (INLEX) mission is to strengthen human resources in Central America and South America through volunteer programs, educational travel and internship opportunities.

In addition to this, INLEX provides opportunities for students and professionals to further gain experience in their field of choice by matching participants with the best opening available.

We work towards:

  • Sustainability in the projects and communities that we work in.
  • Programs that promote cultural exchange.
  • Safe and affordable programs.
  • Strengthening and empowering communities.
  • Authentic experiences for our participants.
  • Facilitating education.

INLEX was set founded by former Peace Corps staff in Guatemala in 2005 who wanted to provide flexible programs for volunteers in Central America. This flexibility allows our participants the option to commit for as long as they want in the area they are best suited to support; creating a positive impact and a rewarding experience. We do this because we believe in the principle that every volunteer can make a difference.

Many years and happy people later, we continue working with key partner projects to develop communities in the Latin American region.
