Clinical neuropsychology is a recognized specialty of clinical psychology that involves the science and practice of brain-behavior relationships across the lifespan.

The clinical psychology Ph.D. program at UH offers a clinical neuropsychology training experience that follows the guidelines of the Minnesota and Houston Conference on Specialty Education and Education and Training in Clinical Neuropsychology. The program also meets American Psychological Association’s definition of a “major area of study."”

Our mission is to train the next generation of academic clinical neuropsychologists who will embrace diversity in multidisciplinary research and clinical teams to advance our understanding of brain-behavior relationships and enhance the quality of life of individuals and families affected by disorders of the central nervous system.
