The Mission of the Doctor of Psychology Program at The George Washington University is to graduate practitioner-scholar professional psychologists who are exceptionally skilled as local clinical scientists in using a psychodynamic framework for the assessment and treatment of psychopathology. Our graduates know the clinical research methods necessary for new discoveries and base their professional practice in ongoing critical consumption of relevant research. We value openness, curiosity, diversity, tolerance, beneficence, humility, methodological ability and professional ethics in the discovery and equitable provision of effective clinical services.
