The Center for Psychological Services and Development offers opportunities
to help you explore where you are and where you would like to be,
whether assessing your career interests, or your psychological or
educational needs.
Career counseling and assessment
Individual and group career counseling are offered for assistance
with changing careers, assessing occupational interest and life
planning. Career testing is often combined with counseling. Self-exploration
helps to identify careers suited to one’s personal interests,
personality and skills. (Therapists here may work in cooperation
with VCU’s Career Center, which can provide additional resources
that assure comprehensive service.)
Psychological and educational assessment
The CPSD welcomes referrals for psychological evaluation and other
assessment batteries from individuals, mental health professionals,
schools, physicians, and parents. Therapists choose among a variety
of assessment instruments depending on the referral question. Some
of the techniques include objective and projective personality tests,
intellectual and achievement tests, and behavioral assessments.
