临床儿童追踪
The Clinical-Child track extends and deepens the interns base of professional development and promotes a rich understanding of the intrapsychic, 家族性, 学校, social and community/systems aspects of child psychopathology and psychotherapy.
朝着这些目标前进, the track provides intensive clinical and didactic experience in the range of activities that comprise the role of the clinical-child psychologist. Training is built around a core of experiences in treatment, 评估, 和孩子们的咨询, 青少年, 父母, 家庭, 学校和机构. This training is integrated with a broad range of clinical seminars. Emphasis is on the development of those clinical skills and theoretical concepts that are essential for psychologists entering a variety of career activities in the child mental health area.
The tracks theoretical orientation reflects an integration of intrapsychic, 发展, 家庭相互影响的, and cognitive-behavioral points of view.
活动
- The Child Track intern carries a caseload resulting in 10-12 outpatient hours per week. These cases are primarily drawn from the Child and Adolescent 精神病学 Clinic and involve working with children, 青少年 and 家庭 representing a wide range of ages, 类型 of disorders and treatment techniques. Child Track interns may also take on an adult treatment case if they elect to do so (e.g., through the Student Counseling Service). One-to-one 监督 is provided by different faculty at a minimum of 4 hours per week. There are also opportunities to collaborate with faculty in ongoing evaluations of treatment cases.
- Each intern performs and observes 心理评估s of children and 家庭 referred by our own clinics, 学校项目, 和社区. Interns receive (at least) weekly 监督 of their 评估s and work as part of an ongoing Child and Adolescent Assessment Team through which they complete 4 - 5 评估s per year. (Adult Track interns may not complete a child or adolescent 评估 while on the Child Rotation, and the Child and Adolescent Assessment team is not a required part of the rotation.)
- Each intern completes several diagnostic evaluations as part of the Child and Adolescent Diagnostic Team. 为了这个团队, interns (or 居民 or fellows) conduct an evaluation (which can include play, 心理评估, 诊断访谈, 家庭会议, 等.) while the supervisor and team of other clinicians (interns, 居民, and fellows) observe via video camera. The intern consults with the team during the initial diagnostic 评估 session and then works closely with the supervisor for the remaining evaluation and feedback sessions (often 4 to 5 sessions in total). (Adult Track Interns on the Child rotation typically complete one Diagnostic Evaluation.)
- Interns attend and present case formulations on a rotating basis during the weekly Child and Adolescent Clinic Staffing meeting. (Adult Track interns on the Child rotation typically present one case at staffing meetings).
-
Each child intern participates, on a 4 month rotation, in the weekly 儿童精神病学/Medical Follow up consultation appointments at the Dept. of Pediatric Surgery's Outpatient Pediatric Medical Trauma Clinic. This program adds a psychological screening/psycho-education component to the standard post-hospital-discharge pediatric medical follow up. Cases involve children who have experienced various medically traumatic injuries (falls, 机动车辆事故, 行人/汽车/摩托车事故, 等.), with pediatric patients ranging in age from a few weeks old to late adolescence. Interns have an opportunity to observe both the medical follow up appointment and the psychological screening interview and psycho-education geared specifically to normalizing certain reactions and providing resources to the family when/if they are needed. 随着时间的推移, the intern will conduct some of these interview themselves, under 监督 of the faculty member involved
