Hear from our Alumni
 

Listen to our alumni reflect on their experiences  during their psychology internship and fellowship programs at the University of Rochester.  

• Provide culturally sensitive, person-centered care to individuals and families experiencing psychological distress or mental disorders across the lifespan 
• Embrace an interdisciplinary approach to psychological services, education, and research, while also developing each trainee’s professional identity as a psychologist 
• Integrate science and practice in a manner that promotes effective psychological assessment and intervention approaches in the populations we serve
• Foster community and university partnerships that are mutually responsive and beneficial 
• Cultivate a supportive, collaborative work environment that fosters free expression of ideas and promotes optimal professional development 

The Department of Psychiatry's Psychology Training Program is committed to diversity, equity and inclusion as core values in our program.  We define diversity broadly and endeavor to understand how ethnic and racial identities, religious beliefs, nationality, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, socio-economic status, disability, physical differences, and veteran status may impact experiences in healthcare and the larger societal context.

Faculty and trainees are committed to developing and maintaining awareness of their cultural lenses, perceptions and perspectives of colleagues, trainees and patients. We strive to examine our blind spots and dismantle our biases. This commitment is guided by Psychology's professional standards and ethics and informed by evolving personal and professional awareness and actions.
