Psychology Training Programs
Psychology Department Mission
The mission of Psychological Services is to deliver excellent inpatient psychiatric care to those who suffer severe and/or chronic mental illness. Furthermore, we strive to provide high quality training to graduate students, predoctoral psychology interns, and postdoctoral fellows as they become integrated into the professional practice of psychology.
The Utah State Hospital Psychology Department strives to provide an optimal working and learning environment for all faculty, trainees, interns, and fellows by stressing the importance of cultural and individual diversity in its training program. This includes a commitment to recruiting, retaining, and enhancing the growth of psychology interns, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty to represent various aspects of diversity, including but not limited to age, color, disabilities, ethnicity, gender, language, national origin, race, religion, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status.
