“Commonwealth Psychology Associates, LLC Expands Behavioral Health Center in Boston’s Financial District” plus 1 more |
| Posted: 26 Feb 2011 07:08 PM PST Commonwealth Psychology Associates, LLC, Boston's Behavioral Health Specialists, expands in Boston's Financial District. The rapidly growing behavioral health specialty center will offer more psychology and behavioral health services, including expanded psychopharmacology services, counseling & psychotherapy, health & wellness services, ADHD treatment & other psychology specialty services in its newly expanded location in Boston's Financial District. Boston, MA (PRWEB) February 26, 2011 Commonwealth Psychology Associates, LLC (CPA), one of Boston's fastest growing private behavioral health centers, announced the recent expansion of their location in the Financial District of Boston. Since 2004, the Boston-based center has provided a comprehensive range of behavioral health and psychology services including counseling and therapy, stress management training, health psychology and wellness services, ADHD testing and coaching, educational and support groups, and psychological and neuropsychological testing services. With over 20 psychologists and psychopharmacologists on staff, CPA offers an extensive range of specialty services to meet the needs of most clients. A full list of services is available by clicking Behavioral Health Services in Boston and Newton. CPA added its third location in the Financial District of Boston in August 2010, and rapidly filled to capacity by the end of the year. "While we expected the new location downtown to be busy, we have been more than pleasantly surprised by the rapid growth of our client and referral base in the Financial District," says Dr. Andrea Piatt, founder and CEO of Commonwealth Psychology Associates. She added, "our clients, who are primarily professionals who work or live in the area, have expressed appreciation for how convenient this location is – many have been able to obtain their behavioral health services immediately before or after work, or over a lunch break, which has helped them save valuable time in their daily lives." A number of physician groups in the area have taken advantage of CPA's newest location. "Physician groups appreciate being able to refer their patients to a nearby center where they know their patients' behavioral health needs will be met quickly by top notch providers," said Dr. Piatt. "One of the difficult things for physicians and clients alike is locating one site that offers all of the behavioral health services that might be needed. Often, psychologists and other mental health professionals work alone or in small groups, which limits the range of services available to clients and referring clinicians," Dr. Piatt said. However, CPA addressed this common problem by offering a breadth and depth of services that often can only be found in large clinics or hospitals. To handle the surge in demand for high-end psychological and behavioral health services in Boston, CPA recently acquired an additional 2700+ square feet of office space in their 185 Devonshire Street location, bringing their total downtown space to approximately 4200 square feet. "We have built more offices and have hired additional psychologists to meet the demand for services. Additionally, our downtown location also will now offer psychopharmacology services, which will add to the broad range of behavioral health services offered at this location," Dr. Piatt said. With this expansion, CPA hopes to be able to continue to accept new clients and referrals from physician groups in the area. "Fortunately, we were able to quickly add to our capacity so that we can continue to accept new clients and referrals from area physician groups," Dr. Piatt said. "After all, we are in the business of helping people and the first step in that process is being able to see new clients quickly, and with our expansion, we will continue to be able to do just that," she added. # # # Andrea Piatt This entry passed through the Full-Text RSS service — if this is your content and you're reading it on someone else's site, please read our FAQ page at fivefilters.org/content-only/faq.php |
| Posted: 26 Feb 2011 09:45 PM PST When psychology professor Sharmin Tunguz entered her office Thursday, she thought books had fallen off her rickety shelves. After a closer look, she realized several were missing. "It's disturbing to feel that someone was in my office," Tunguz said. "It's annoying. Very annoying." Tunguz and at least nine others with offices in the psychology suite on the first floor of Harrison Hall reported books missing. Tunguz estimated that the intruder took nine of her books, most of which were new and the latest edition of the text. Her older editions remained behind. "One of the books, a consumer behavior book — I took a look at the list price on Amazon.com," she said. "It's about $277." The department secretary, Connie Lambermont, said she noticed a few things in her office had been moved around as well, though nothing seems to be missing. "You don't expect to walk into your office and have textbooks missing," Lambermont said. "It's creepy-feeling." Director of Public Safety Angie Nally said this kind of theft hasn't happened at DePauw in her recent memory. Before students shopped online for class materials, Nally said books would be stolen from unattended backpacks and sold to the university bookstore. "I haven't had textbook thefts for a long time, much less enter faculty offices to take them," Nally said. The thefts remain under investigation by Public Safety. Following the laptop thefts in Harrison and the Olin Biological Sciences Building that occurred earlier in the winter, Nally said Public Safety has tried to have more of a presence in the buildings. An officer locked and checked the building at about 10 p.m. Wednesday, the night before the missing books were reported. "There's a glass partition where the receptionist sits … and that locks," Nally said. "That lock was tampered with, and that's a potential entry that someone either broke that lock, moved that lock, entered through the window, or they found a door that is less secure than it should have been." The losses won't financially impact the professors missing books, as publishing companies sent the copies to the professors to review before choosing them to use in class. The professors have had to contact the companies to get replacements. "I am grateful they didn't take my laptop. That would have been completely debilitating." Tunguz said, surprised that her computer was still in her office. Textbooks, which are difficult to conceal and can be very heavy, seemed to be an odd choice over laptops, Nally said. "I guess it really depends on the thief, what they feel like they can turn around and liquidate very quickly," she said.
