Training Rotations
Neurodevelopmental
Child & Adolescent Psychology
This track offers an array of training opportunities for interns who are interested in the assessment and treatment of children, adolescents, and families. Opportunities may include specialty clinics, educational settings, and more general outpatient settings. This track provides future clinical psychologist experience to assess issues in children and adolescents. Trainees will understand how to assess conditions such as ADHD, behavioral and learning disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and medically complex clients with co-occurring psychological disorders.
Trainees will be equally equipped to assess these issues if they happen to be related to medical conditions (e.g., epilepsy, prematurity, traumatic brain injury, genetic syndromes, prenatal alcohol exposure, and a host of other medical conditions). Trainees will also understand how to work with children and families who have been exposed to trauma.
Social service trainees will learn how to support underserved families by gaining experience in intake, psychosocial assessments, and resource navigation. Trainees may be invited to interview with one or more partners based on their availability which is determined annually. Interviews do not guarantee selection.
