How to Use the Find a Psychologist Database

Search By: Areas of Expertise

In order to help you locate psychologists who meet your specific needs, you may choose one or more of the 38 areas of expertise we have listed . These are areas of practice chosen by the psychologist, based on their specific education and training experience.

To help, we offer general categories (psychological assessment, individual psychotherapy, couples psychotherapy, family psychotherapy, and group psychotherapy). Next are more specialized services (e.g., clinical neuropsychological assessment and play therapy) or problems (e.g. depression). We often provide examples for terms that may be less familiar. Wherever possible, we tried to use commonly understood terminology, rather than the diagnostic label.

Search Tip: Although it may significantly reduce the number of psychologists identified, more than one area of expertise can be chosen at one time in a search. Hold the ctrl key down to select up to 5 different areas of expertise.
