NPA June Member Spotlight
Ashleigh Clarke, PsyD
I
joined NPA during my internship year in 2018 and have been active ever
since. I had a supervisor turned mentor, who is also an NPA member, who
felt I would benefit from being involved with the Legislative Committee
given some of my experiences, interests, and long-term career goals. Read Dr. Clarke's full Member Spotlight HERE!

Why the Chiles v. Salazar Decision Matters for Therapy in Nebraska
A message from the Nebraska Psychological Association
Yesterday, the Supreme Court of the United States issued its decision in Chiles v. Salazar, an 8–1 ruling addressing Colorado’s law protecting minors from conversion therapy delivered through talk therapy. The Court held that, as applied to speech-based psychotherapy, Colorado’s law regulates speech based on viewpoint and must be reviewed under the most rigorous First Amendment standard. The case now returns to the lower court for that review.d beyond. Read NPA's full statement HERE!
