Our Staff - 2008-09

The Staff of the CPS is made up of clinical and counseling psychologists, counselors, a substance abuse counselor, and advanced graduate students-in-training. Feel free to inquire about your counselor's background and training. It is important that you have confidence in your counselor and his/her ability to help you. You can be assured that our advanced graduate students-in-training receive weekly supervision. If for some reason you are uncomfortable with your assigned counselor, please talk with him or her so that a re-referral may be considered.
