Clinical Child & Adolescent Practice SIG Update

By Megan Lawson, PsyD, ABPP
Chair, Clinical Child and Adolescent Practice SIG

We’re excited to share a Fall update from the Special Interest Group (SIG) on Clinical Child and Adolescent Practice. We have several upcoming offerings. We also want to remind you that our LISTSERV is a great way to connect with members, ask questions, get or share resources, or dialogue around relevant issues. This is an excellent tool and we have hundreds of members. Please use this!

Looking ahead, we’re planning even more ways to connect and learn:

• Clinical Conversation on 11/18 from 10:30-11:30 am CT
  • How to Talk with Parents About Sensitive Topics When There Isn’t a Script with Alecia Zalot, PhD, and Priscilla Morrison, PsyD
  • This is a free, casual virtual call facilitated by a pediatric neuropsychologist and a clinical psychologist. All are welcome to join and participate. Linked Here.
• Clinical Conversations (Dates TBD):
  • The Business Side of Practice with Jacqueline Herrera, PsyD, and Mary Collins, PsyD
• Formal CEU Offerings:
  • Dialectical Behavioral Therapy for Youth – Presented by Dr. Kate Odom, PsyD on December 12, 2025 from 11:00-12:00 CT
    • Official listserv flyer to come

We’re also still welcoming new leadership to join our SIG! If you’re interested in getting more involved and building community with others in the field of child and adolescent psychology, please reach out to Megan Lawson at DrLawson@alliancepsychologytx.com.
