Financial assistance

Because we are a non-profit, community-service oriented Psychology Training Clinic, we only charge an administrative fee for our services.

We also offer a sliding-fee scale for individuals and families who are in a difficult financial situation. Once the intake process is completed, clients can discuss their situation with their therapist. We do not refuse services because of clients’ limited financial resources.

At this time, we are unable to accept insurance plans, but you can inquire with your insurance company about the possibility of receiving reimbursement for your payments.


Our therapists

The IPS Psychology Training Clinic is a training center for the doctoral students of the Institute for the Psychological Sciences, a Catholic graduate school of psychology.

The Clinic is staffed by externs who have already completed their master’s degrees and are pursuing their doctoral degrees.

All the work carried out by our doctoral externs is supervised by experienced, licensed clinical psychologists who are on the faculty of the Institute.

 
Our Mission

The IPS Psychology Training Clinic is committed to providing high quality mental health services consistent with a Catholic understanding of the person, marriage and family life. At the heart of such treatment is a deep respect for the dignity of the client and commitment to providing appropriate services without discrimination and within the context of the client’s culture, race, religion, gender, and developmental level.
