for the change

older than UF by<br />

Webb’s Over-Arching<br />
• The <strong>Psychology</strong><br />
department should<br />
became a core,<br />
scientific base for<br />
psychology at UF and<br />
develop strong<br />
working relations with<br />
other units including<br />
business, education,<br />
medicine, biology, etc.<br />

Development <strong>of</strong> <strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
• Health Center opened<br />
1956; first graduating<br />
class 1960<br />
• Webb felt that an Arts<br />
and Sciences <strong>Department</strong><br />
could not properly<br />
support a clinic and run it<br />
in the proper setting; the<br />
Health Center was more<br />
appropriate<br />
• Now Clinical and Health<br />

Clinical <strong>Psychology</strong> at UF<br />
• A <strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong> Psychological Services was<br />
developed beginning in 1959 in the College <strong>of</strong><br />
Health Related Services (which became Health<br />
Related Pr<strong>of</strong>essions in 1965, & then Public Health<br />
& Health Pr<strong>of</strong>essions), within the Health Center<br />
complex<br />
• It was originated by Darryl Maze, Dean <strong>of</strong> that<br />
college, and Wilse B. Webb, <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Psychology</strong> in the College <strong>of</strong> Arts and Sciences,<br />
which already had an APA-accredited training<br />
program in clinical psychology under the direction<br />
<strong>of</strong> James G. Dixon.
Clinical <strong>Psychology</strong> at UF<br />
• In this unique arrangement the new department was<br />
located within the medical center complex but<br />
outside <strong>of</strong> the Medical School itself and thus free <strong>of</strong><br />
dominance by physicians<br />
• All faculty members had joint appointments in the<br />
<strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Psychology</strong>.<br />
• In 1959 Joseph G. Dawson, Jr. was the first person<br />
hired into the program. He remained for just two<br />
years as the head <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
Psychological Services before leaving for<br />
Louisiana.

<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> Illinois was added in 1961.<br />

<strong>University</strong> PhD<br />

(later chair) in 1963.<br />
• The name <strong>of</strong> the department was<br />
changed to the <strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
Clinical <strong>Psychology</strong> the next<br />
year but the department<br />
remained primarily a service<br />
department.
Development <strong>of</strong> the Clinical Program<br />
• An internship program was<br />
accredited in 1954. The<br />
<strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong> Clinical<br />
<strong>Psychology</strong> first is listed as an<br />
academic department in the<br />
1970-71 catalog, according to<br />
which it <strong>of</strong>fered courses “under<br />

Louis D. Cohen (1912-2000)<br />
• Cohen translated his vision for an educational<br />
model for clinical psychology into a programmatic<br />
realization<br />
• He reshaped the program from a clinical service<br />
function into an academic department with<br />
research and service functions and broad<br />
relationships in both the medical complex and the<br />
community.<br />
• In the process, he more than doubled the faculty<br />
and increased related resources. The program<br />
evolved into first nationally accredited psychology<br />
program within a health center setting.
Cohen and the <strong>Department</strong><br />
• The department also provided consultation and<br />
clinical services to a broad range <strong>of</strong> medical<br />
departments as well as to the public.<br />
• Cohen became one <strong>of</strong> the fathers <strong>of</strong> the<br />
community psychology approach which resulted<br />
in major changes in the mental health care <strong>of</strong><br />
chronically ill patients.<br />
• Lou Cohen consistently championed the mental<br />
health care <strong>of</strong> the underprivileged, and the<br />
inclusion <strong>of</strong> all people in public mental health<br />
programs.
Nathan W. Perry, Jr.<br />
• Nathan W. Perry, Jr., a 1963 PhD from<br />

1976/1977 the Clinical Program<br />
Split from the <strong>Psychology</strong> Dept.<br />

• As the only doctoral program in the college, they had a<br />
problem in that the degrees were granted through the<br />
psychology dept.<br />

with the result that the College <strong>of</strong> Health Related<br />
Pr<strong>of</strong>essions took complete control <strong>of</strong> the CLP program<br />
and the <strong>Department</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Psychology</strong> established a<br />
counseling program jointly with the College <strong>of</strong><br />
Education; later entirely in psychology as regarded as<br />
too expensive for Education
