The Psychology Clinic at the University of North Texas was
originally founded in 1972 with the purpose of providing professional
services and referrals to clients who request them. The UNT Psychology
clinic also provides professional and competent training to graduate
students in the applied programs of the Department of Psychology.

CENTER FOR SPORTS PSYCHOLOGY
|
The Center for Sport Psychology is contracted with the UNT
Athletic Department to provide sport psychology services to its sport
teams, individual athletes and coaches. Currently, we have 9 consultants
working with six teams (five women's, one men's). These teams comprise over
125 student athletes and 10 head and assistant coaches. In addition to the
9 consultants that have been assigned to and work daily with these teams,
we have served several individual athletes from other UNT sport teams. We
also work closely with the UNT sportsmedicine staff, in particularly the
head athletic trainer Dustin Hill, to coordinate mental health treatment of
athletes and to provide referral sources as needed. Finally, two of our
consultants taught student athlete sections of Psychology 1000, which was
taken by all individually reviewed (IR) student athletes. In addition to
teaching the course, we are tracking these students to determine the
effectiveness of their involvement in the course.
