The MHC provides Gallaudet students a comprehensive array of mental health services, including counseling, psychotherapy, assessment, psychiatric services, and prevention education. Through our training programs, we also provide mental health services to deaf and hard of hearing individuals and their family members in the Washington Metro area. Services are provided by supervised trainees and licensed staff who are fluent in American Sign Language and other modes of communication used by deaf and hard of hearing people in order to render effective diagnostic and therapeutic services. Trainees are graduate students from the departments of Counseling, Psychology, and Social work at Gallaudet University. We also have training opportunities for practicing health care providers and graduate students from outside Gallaudet University. |
