Graduate Certificate in Psychology Clinical-Respecialization

University of Missouri - St. Louis

On campus living is currently optional, but quarantine seems to have made this year’s freshman class less ready for off campus living. We want to make sure that they have a support system in place, which they will have in the dorms.

This program is designed for graduates of accredited doctoral programs in psychology who wish to receive training in the specialty field of clinical psychology. Respecialization students are trained within the context of the UMSL Clinical Psychology Doctoral Program, which is accredited by the American Psychological Association. The program provides an integrated sequence of training experiences, including didactic course work and practicum placements. Core graduate-level psychology educational requirements not completed elsewhere are included in the respecialization student's course of study.

Degree Program: Two years of coursework and practicum in psychotherapy and assessment, followed by a one-year, clinical internship.

Respecialization students take courses in those areas of the core curriculum not covered in previous graduate work that are required for professional licensure.
