Although more progress is needed, GSPP endeavors to create an accessible, affirming, and safe climate by actively engaging in the process of systemic transformation and accountability. About the Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology Program In 1976, GSPP became one of the first schools in the country to offer a Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) in Clinical Psychology. Since 1979, our inaugural degree has maintained accreditation by the American Psychological Association and has become one of the most competitive and comprehensive programs in the field of professional psychology. It is a dedicated, practice-focused clinical psychology program built on four pillars: rigorous academic coursework, in-house clinical work, community-based clinical work, and departmental mentorship. This approach produces well-rounded professionals with the skills necessary to help transform communities and lives. With approximately 150 students and 15 core faculty members, the program is one of the largest, most competitive, and most comprehensive PsyD programs in the country, with a high number of applicants, low admission rate (under 10%), and excellent internship match record. Students provide psychotherapy and psychological assessments to the Denver community in the on-campus training clinic, the Professional Psychology Clinic (with multiple sub-clinics), and through over 200 practicum placements.

The administrative duties associated with this position would likely include a 2 course release. In addition, this position may hire part-time graduate teaching assistants to assist with running labs and/or grading for assessments courses.
