Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) (Hybrid In-residence + Distance)

This 5-year PsyD program is designed for students who aspire to make a difference in the practice of psychology and who envision a holistic approach to their life's work that integrates professional and personal growth through a learning model that emphasizes scholarship, practice and service.

Saybrook's program emphasizes specializations in a particular life-span development phase such as adolescence, mid-life or late adult life. However, students will also have the flexibility to specialize in other areas that are supported by the experience and expertise of Saybrook clinical faculty such as forensic psychology, integrative and alternative approaches to health or neuroscience.

The Saybrook PsyD program is a cohort residential program open to those entering with either a bachelor’s or a masters degree comprised of course work that is completed in residence and at a distance, plus a year comprised of the internship and dissertation. Time to completion for students entering with a bachelor's degree is anticipated to require the full 5 years of the program.

As a cohort-based clinical program, Saybrook's model balances its in-residence requirements with distance learning to offer maximum flexibility for working adults to pursue a PsyD while ensuring comprehensive support of clinical training outcomes. In-residence learning occurs at specified intervals throughout the program, as residential conferences presented in weeklong and weekend formats.
