Advanced Clinical Psychology: Assessment, Case Formulation & Evidence-Based Treatment

This advanced course trains learners to think and work like modern clinical psychologists: gathering high-quality assessment data, translating it into a coherent case formulation, and selecting evidence-based treatments with measurable goals. Students will strengthen diagnostic reasoning, sharpen clinical interviewing skills, interpret common psychological measures, and build formulation-driven treatment plans that integrate culture, trauma history, risk, and functional impairment. The course emphasizes clinical decision-making across real-world presentations (mood, anxiety, trauma, personality, and comorbidity), ethical practice, documentation, and outcomes trackingโ€”so care is not only compassionate, but defensible, effective, and data-informed.

Heart Disease 101: A Beginnerโ€™s Guide for Students

This beginner-friendly course introduces the fundamentals of heart disease in a clear, student-focused way. Youโ€™ll learn how the heart works, what โ€œheart diseaseโ€ really means (itโ€™s a family of problems, not one thing), the most common conditions (like coronary artery disease and heart failure), key risk factors, warning signs, basic testing, and the core principles of prevention and treatment. The goal is to build a strong foundation without drowning you in cardiology jargon.
