The Professional Psychology Center (PPC) is the training center for the Graduate School of Professional Psychology at the University of Denver. The PPC has provided low cost, high quality psychological services to Denver’s community for over 30 years. Staffed by doctoral students under the supervision of licensed mental health professionals, we offer a broad range of confidential mental health care.

Why should I go to the PPC?

The university setting enhances our ability to provide services that are innovative, cutting edge, GLBT affirming, and culturally sensitive.

Services are provided by doctoral level students who are supervised by licensed professionals.

At the PPC, we carefully tailor our services to meet each client’s individual needs.

Fees for services are on a sliding scale, and are based on your income and financial circumstances.

The clinic is located in the Ammi Hyde Building at the southern end of the DU campus (2460 S. Vine Street). We are open Monday through Thursday from 8:30AM to 8:30PM and 8:30AM to 3:00PM on Fridays. In addition to psychotherapy services, the clinic also provides psychological assessments and forensic services.
