THERAPY

Individual Therapy

Generally speaking, psychotherapy is aimed at helping clients develop more awareness of their interpersonal style and behavioral patterns, and then to develop strategies for making changes through the use of evidence-based intervention techniques that are individualized to meet the needs of each client. The goal of psychotherapy is to help the client address those issues that might interfere with the client's functioning and/or life satisfaction.

EVALUATIONS

At the Psychology Clinic we aim to provide comprehensive and individualized psychological evaluations to the community. Evaluations are completed by doctoral student clinicians under the supervision of a licensed psychologist. Common evaluations conducted within the clinic are:

Cognitive Evaluations

Cognitive testing involves a comprehensive assessment of strengths and weaknesses. This also frequently include an evaluation of academic achievement and learning difficulties. Results are often used to inform recommendations for support in school, occupational, and home settings.

Personality Evaluations

Personality testing is used to identify cognitive, behavioral and emotional needs or difficulties. Results are often used to inform clients of their unique personality characteristics, including areas of strength and growth.

Psychodiagnostic Evaluations

Psychodiagnostic testing is used to identify current psychological concerns and possible diagnoses that may be distressing to an individual. Results are commonly used to inform recommendations for support in school, occupational, and home settings.

Neuropsychological Evaluations

Neuropsychological testing is used to evaluate behavioral correlates of brain functioning to determine current cognitive abilities or difficulties. Results are commonly used to develop strategies for compensating for any cognitive limitations.
