CU Denver is committed to an inclusive culture, one in which all people are valued, welcomed, supported, and educated. The Clinical Health Psychology program is aligned with these values. Please see below our statement regarding diversity and inclusion. The Psychology Department at CU Denver offers a Doctor of Philosophy degree (PhD) with an emphasis in Clinical Health Psychology (CHP). We are accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA) since 2016 (APA, Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation, 750 1st St. NE, Washington, DC 20002-4242 202.336.5979). We were awarded full accreditation until 2034. Our program adheres to the scientist-practitioner model. Training emphasizes the contribution of research to the understanding, treatment and prevention of a wide range of health-related concerns, and the application of knowledge that is grounded in scientific evidence. The CUDCP-APA (APA Council of University Directors of Clinical Psychology) has named our program the Exemplar Clinical Health Psychology Program for APA. The CUDCP-APA exemplar award occurs once every 7 years, and it is an incredible honor that we have been named as the APA exemplar Clinical Health Psychology program. In the CHP program, students are trained in a variety of approaches and techniques for evaluating, diagnosing and treating a wide range of psychological problems. Because our program places an emphasis on health, our students are also trained to assess the psychological factors associated with different medical conditions and learn to design effective interventions that integrate biological, psychological and social (including cultural) factors. Students acquire research expertise by completing a master's thesis and doctoral dissertation and demonstrate competence in clinical assessment and intervention through several applied practica experiences, a clinical competency evaluation, and a pre-doctoral internship. With this broad and intense model of training, our students have gone on to diverse professional postdoctoral fellowships and professional careers
