  • PYB-7100: AdvSem-Clinical Psychopharmacology

    This course is designed to provide an in-depth survey of current theory and practice of clinical psychopharmacology. We begin in this course with the principles of pharmacology, which consist of pharmacokinetics (the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination of drugs) and pharmacodynamics (drug-receptor interactions). After study of the principles of pharmacology, the class will review individual classes of drugs, including anti-anxiety agents, antidepressants, mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and drugs for the treatment of movement disorders and cognitive disorders in the elderly. For each drug class, the basic biology of the disorder and the mechanisms of drug action are discussed, followed by a review of current clinical practice and potential new drugs. Other topics in the drug literature are addressed, including the use of medication with different age groups and the implication of various conditions (e.g. pregnancy) on drug selection. Students will learn when and how to advocate for or against pharmacotherapy, monitor clients’ progress and response to pharmacotherapy (including potentially dangerous side effects), and provide effective, well-informed psychotherapy in the context of medication treatment with a focus on integrative care, when indicated.

  • PYC-7150: Spiritual & Religious Issues in Psych

    The focus of this course is two-fold: 1) to develop a conceptual framework to formulate how spiritual and religious issues impact clinical practice; and 2) to provide an experiential component that includes mindfulness meditation exercises and the exploration of participants’ spiritual narratives.

It will also develop a holistic conceptualization of clinical practice and identify some of the key constructs that are integral to the practice of spiritually oriented therapy (e.g., mindfulness, self-compassion, wisdom, soul, and serenity). The experiential dimension will allow students to explore their spiritual narratives in order to clarify the persons, places, ideas, and experiences that have impacted their current spiritual identity or perceived lack of one. Time will also be devoted to the practice of mindfulness meditation so that student can experience the potential benefits for both clinicians and clients.

  • PYC-7270: Substance Abuse/Dependence

    This course will provide an overview of one of the most common conditions encountered by clinicians: substance use disorders.  Failure to identify and provide treatment and/or referral for substance use disorders can undermine the effectiveness of psychological interventions.  Successful recognition and treatment, on the other hand, improves treatment outcomes and provides numerous professional opportunities for the practicing psychologist.  After an overview and brief history of the field, this course will consider: definitions of terms, epidemiology, screening and assessment, evidence based treatment approaches, the outcome literature, the neurophysiology of abuse and dependence, pharmacologic treatment, “dual diagnosis,” coerced treatment, employee assistance, nondrug addictions, and health care policy issues.

  • PYC-7300: The Dream in Clinical Practice

    This weekend course explores the use of dream-states (night dreaming, day dreaming, reverie) in clinical work from a variety of perspectives. Cultural and historical attitudes about dreams, dreamers, and dream interpreters will be discussed. Issues of cultural difference and diversity are considered when talking about dreams. Empirical human and animal dream studies and contemporary cognitive and neuropsychological research will be reviewed. From a psychoanalytic view, we will consider dreams as diagnostic indicators of psychic structure and content, facilitators of deeper and more authentic communication, representations of unconscious perceptions, as objects of mutual exploration, as retreats and advances, as transference and countertransference indicators and communications, wish and defense configurations, personality developmental level, character style indicators, as well as serving as the “royal road to the unconscious”. We will discuss different types of dreamers, dream interpreters, various forms of dream interpretations, and dreams as interpretations of life as experienced. In addition to night dreaming, the class will also discuss nightmares and night terrors, as well as the absence of remembered dreaming. Experiential learning will be emphasized and the class will explore the experience, function, and capacity of dreaming, day dreaming, and reverie in clinical waking states. Dreaming as a listening perspective will be emphasized.

  • PYC-7350: Infant Mental Health

    This weekend course will focus on psychologist’s roles in the specialty field of Infant Mental Health.

We will consider the impact of trauma and traumatic stress on children’s development as well as the critical role of attachment. Assessment and diagnosis of this population will be explored. Psychotherapeutic treatment approaches for this population will be presented through theoretical material and clinical case examples.

  • WRK-7080: Expressive Arts Therapy

    Child psychotherapy requires a different skill set and a different style of interaction than therapy with adults. This one-day workshop will provide students with a general guide to therapeutic treatment interventions that can be used with children and adolescents who are experiencing difficulties with their emotions and behavior. The experiential nature of the workshop requires students to practice clinical skills and also to role-play the part of child clients. During the course of the class discussions and activities information of a personal nature might be shared and it is the expectation of the professor and of the University that such information will remain confidential, allowing participants to share without fear of disclosure outside the classroom.

  • WRK-7090: Suicide: Effective Risk Assessment and Intervention

    Suicide is the most common psychological emergency that therapists will encounter, and it is on the rise. For mental health professionals with an active clinical practice, suicide is an occupational hazard that can be both emotionally and practically devastating. Recent research has identified suicide-specific therapies that are effective in treating both suicidal ideation and behavior. Most therapists are not aware of them nor have they been trained in them, so most suicidal clients do not receive these potentially lifesaving treatments. This course will provide an invaluable opportunity for therapists to become familiar with these empirically validated, evidence-based treatments for suicide that are fast becoming the standard of care.
