Clearwater Counseling and Assessment Services offers a full array of diagnostic and treatment mental health services, including specialty clinics providing DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) and psychodiagnostic assessment. When assessing clients, our goal is to delineate the individual's strengths as well as weaknesses, and to identify practical interventions that will improve functioning. When providing therapy, we attempt to foster growth and development for our clients through empathy, respect for individuality and diversity, teamwork, and rigorous thinking. We welcome clients of all ages and with all kinds of functional difficulties. Clearwater is committed to providing the highest possible quality of services to the broadest range of clients. Our clinical staff is well trained, with a mix of senior clinicians who are members of the teaching faculty at major academic institutions, younger licensed psychologists and marriage and family therapists, and a few service providers who are not yet licensed but are obtaining hours towards licensure. Clearwater serves as a training site for graduate students in the UC Berkeley Department of Psychology and it is approved to provide training for CEU credit to licensed psychologists and MFTs. Our current services include: Counseling for all ages. We offer individual psychotherapy, play therapy, and family therapy on a fee-for-service basis.Psychological and Educational Testing for all ages. We provide cognitive testing, personality assessment, academic testing, and neuropsychological screening tests for anyone five years of age or older. We are also available to conduct school observations for school age children. DBT Clinic (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) for adolescents and adults. We offer individual DBT therapy for anyone 13 years of age or older; DBT skills groups for adolescents and their parents, young adults, and adults; and DBT parenting classes, as well as individualized parent coaching and family therapy. It is generally recommended that clients receive individual DBT therapy in conjunction with skills classes, but we do accept clients into our skills group who are already in individual therapy elsewhere. Our therapists are intensively trained in DBT and we run our own formal DBT consultation team. We are committed to providing DBT adherent services whenever possible. Spanish
