TRIP is also available to provide specialty instruction, in-service training, and consultation to mental health professionals, students in the mental health professions, and regional agencies. Research TRIP conducts ongoing research on sexual and physical abuse, dissociation, and trauma in an effort to expand the existing knowledge base and improve the quality of treatment for problems related to these areas. Individuals receiving psychological services at TRIP are encouraged to participate in research. Protecting the privacy and anonymity of those who do agree to participate in research at TRIP is a carefully maintained priority. To Apply for Services Eligibility for Services TRIP serves individuals living in Broward County, Florida.
Individuals living elsewhere are eligible to make application for services.
Private insurance is accepted where applicable. Services are available to adults age 18 and above regardless of race, creed, color, national or ethnic origin, and sexual orientation. Before being formally admitted for treatment at TRIP, each individual first receives an initial intake evaluation from which it is determined whether the services provided at TRIP are likely to be appropriate for and beneficial to her or him. If it is determined that admission is appropriate, an initial treatment plan is formulated collaboratively between client and therapist on the basis of the intake evaluation. In those cases where TRIP does not appear to be the most appropriate treatment facility, the staff will assist in identifying and referring to an appropriate service agency.
