The opportunity to work in a training clinic that offers high-quality, evidence-based, affordable therapeutic and assessment services to individuals in our community brings me great joy and fulfillment. Please support the efforts of my brilliant colleagues who are working to expand our specialty services, including autism evaluations, applied behavior analysis (ABA), and treatment for eating disorders, for youth and adults. These projects will not only enhance access to affordable treatment and assessment services but also continue to support our exceptional clinical psychology doctoral students and ABA students in receiving evidence-based training in these specialty areas.
