Link to Our Brochure
The Office of Applied Psychological Services (OAPS) is a mental
health clinic in the Psychology Department at the University of Illinois at
Chicago (UIC). We offer psychotherapy and psychological testing using approaches
that are based on scientific theory and supported by scientific evidence, with
an emphasis on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques. OAPS serves the
UIC community, including faculty, staff, and students, as well as those living
or working in the greater Chicago area.
Services
OAPS provides a variety of services, including therapy and
psychological assessment. We also provide referrals to appropriate agencies
for problems that we do not treat.
OAPS offers therapy for adults, children, families, and couples. We help individuals make changes that will improve their relationships and personal functioning, and enhance their ability to deal with various life stressors. Therapy is available for a broad range of problems, including adjustment difficulties, depression, and anxiety.
We provide psychological testing services to adults and children experiencing difficulties in school, problems in living, or questions about career choice. We offer evaluations for specific Learning Disorders, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and emotional and behavioral problems.
Fees
Fees are set with a sliding scale based on income. Some insurers may
cover our services; however, we do not work directly with third-party payment.
Clinicians
Clinicians at OAPS are advanced graduate students in UIC's Ph.D.
Program in Clinical Psychology, which is accredited by the American Psychological
Association. Graduate student clinicians are supervised by Ph.D.s in clinical
psychology, most of whom are members of the UIC faculty.
