Generally speaking, psychotherapy is aimed at helping clients develop more awareness of their interpersonal style and behavioral patterns, and then to develop strategies for making changes through the use of evidence-based intervention techniques that are individualized to meet the needs of each client. The goal of psychotherapy is to help the client address those issues that might interfere with the client's functioning and/or life satisfaction.
EVALUATIONS
At the Psychology Clinic we aim to provide comprehensive and individualized psychological evaluations to the community*. Evaluations are completed by doctoral student clinicians under the supervision of a licensed psychologist. Common evaluations conducted within the clinic are:
Cognitive testing involves a comprehensive assessment of strengths and weaknesses. This also frequently include an evaluation of academic achievement and learning difficulties. Results are often used to inform recommendations for support in school, occupational, and home settings.
NEW SERVICE: EXPEDITED ASSESSMENTS!
This summer, the UNT Psychology Clinic will offer a limited number of Expedited Psychological Evaluations. These evaluations will be conducted in a condensed timeframe while maintaining the same level of thoroughness and quality as our standard assessment services.
Clients participating in this service will attend multiple extended assessment sessions across several days within a single week. Completed psychological assessment reports will be delivered within 1–2 weeks following the evaluation—significantly faster than our typical turnaround time. Please note that this service is available on a limited basis during the Summer 2026 term.
Due to the expedited nature of this service, the flat fee is $1,500 and is not eligible for our sliding fee scale. The clinic operates on a private-pay basis (no insurance), though we do accept FSA and HSA payments.
If you are interested in this service, please contact the clinic at 940-565-2631.
