For New School Doctoral students in their second year of training who participate in the practicum through The New School Counseling Center. Students will gain applied practice in neuropsychological and psycho-diagnostic testing with adults. Typical referrals will be for diagnostic testing with questions of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Intellectual/Developmental and Learning Disabilities, Memory and other Cognitive Impairment, as well as common psychiatric differentials for the above. Clients include adults, often students of The New School or clients through The Safran Center, who are struggling academically, occupationally, and/or socially and are wishing to gain insight into their difficulties and recommendations. Students will have the opportunity to complete two assessments through the academic year. Supervision will follow students through the process of comprehensive assessment: gaining an informed understanding of the referral question, collection of background information, test selection, administration, scoring, data analysis and interpretation, report writing, case presentation, and therapeutic feedback. Prerequisite: Diagnostic testing course or prior assessment experience. Assessment and additional supervision meeting times will be scheduled according to student and client availability during clinic hours.
