Clinical Offerings
Play Therapy
Recognizing that children express themselves through play, Play Therapy uses this activity as a medium to communicate their emotions, thoughts, and experiences. Through our services, your child will have the opportunity to collaborate with a counselor-in-training under close faculty supervision, addressing emotional, behavioral, mental, and developmental issues. This not only aids in your child’s growth but also allows our students to refine their Play Therapy skills while contributing to the community.
Filial Therapy
Extending the principles of play therapy, Filial Therapy places additional emphasis on the interaction between the child and their caregiver. Adults initially collaborate closely with a counselor-in-training to acquire and practice specific skills. Subsequently, they integrate these skills into interactions with their child, fostering a deeper and more enriching relationship.
Comprehensive. Low Cost.
The Clinical Services Center provides comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations for individuals on campus and in the community. Advanced graduate student clinicians in school psychology work with faculty supervision to conduct a customized assessment aimed at answering questions about learning, attention, and other life functions.
K-12 Learners
Our services are designed to provide answers and information related to academic concerns for K-12 students. Referrals to the clinic include: cognitive, academic, behavioral, social-emotional, adaptive (life skills), social-pragmatic (autism), attention/focus, and processing performance issues.
College and Adult Services
College student and adults returning to post-secondary education may find themselves struggling to learn, focus or adequately function in order to meet life goals, such as continuing education to support a career change. Referrals from college disability service centers are common.
Additional Information
A minimum of three visits (in-person and/or via telehealth) to the Clinical Services Center are typically required to complete a comprehensive psychoeducational assessment. The progress includes an intake interview, customized assessment sessions (cognitive, academic, social-emotional, etc.), and a feedback-exist session to share your report and explain results.
