Center for Psychological Studies doctoral student Jessica Karle, along with CPS professors William Dorfman, Ph.D., Christian DeLucia, Ph.D., and Stacey Lambert, Psy.D. presented a poster “Exploring Burnout in Mental Health Providers of Chronic Clients” at the recent Annual meeting of the American Psychological Association.
Doctoral students Angela Taveira-Dick and Nicole Swaggerty-Valdes collaborated with Professors William Dorfman and Ed Simco to present “The Influence of Race and Social class on Psychiatric Clinician Diagnosis” at the convention.
All three students are enrolled in the clinical psychology program’s Long Term Mental Illness (LTMI) Concentration. The psychology of LTMI is an emerging area of specialization in psychology that studies the treatment and evaluation of severely and persistently mentally ill adults and children and their families. The area focuses on specialized assessment techniques, psychosocial rehabilitation and public policy.
