Momentum for Health.

In short

Yes - a practicum and field placement page, described as paid, across outpatient, residential and PHP settings

4,500+ people served a year across 44 languages

San Jose · Santa Clara County — what the organization is, what its own site publishes about clinical training, and the questions to bring. Every fact below was read from a fetched page on the date above, and each one links the page it came from. Nothing here says what is available today — sites change; the organization answers that.

What it is

The organization, from its own site.

Santa Clara County behavioral-health nonprofit serving 4,500+ people a year: adult outpatient, residential and crisis residential, a crisis stabilization unit, supported and transitional housing, employment services, the TRUST non-law-enforcement mobile crisis team, and the La Selva Community Clinic. CARF-accredited and DHCS-licensed, with a staff of about 550 working across 44 languages including ASL.

Its site: momentumforhealth.org.

What its site publishes about training

A program its own pages describe.

Each statement below is what the organization’s own site said on 16 August 2026, with the page it said it on. A program existing on a page is not a seat existing today — the page is where you check.

Its internships page states that Momentum offers “both mentored practicum and field placement opportunities” across outpatient, residential and partial-hospitalization settings, at about 16–24 hours per week, and describes the placements as paid. The page that says so →

Its careers page states: “we offer hours toward licensure and clinical supervision in a community behavioral health nonprofit setting.” The page that says so →

Benefits its site publishes include a retirement match of 4–9%. The page that says so →

Before you write to anyone

The three questions that protect your hours.

A trainee cannot count hours from a private practice or a professional corporation — § 4980.43.3 draws that line, and the trainee rules page walks all seven of the rules that decide whether a placement counts. A registered associate has a wider map; both start from the same three questions: who signs the supervision paperwork and on what schedule, which settings the hours would come from, and — for a trainee — whether your program’s site agreement exists yet, because § 4980.42 puts that agreement on your school, not on you.

The whole search method — whose job the search is, the order that saves cycles, and the paper trail to keep — is on the how-to-find-a-practicum-site page. This profile is one shelf of it; the full Bay Area shelves are the practicum-sites directory and the associate-employers directory.

The numbers are current. The argument around them has not been reviewed since it was written.
