Dr. Ramirez plans to admit a new clinical graduate student for fall of 2010.

Dr. Ramirez received his Ph.D. from the University of Texas. He completed his internship at Norfolk State Hospital and Outpatient Clinic in Norfolk, Nebraska. Dr. Ramirez has taught at California State University at Sacramento, Rice University, Pitzer College of the Claremont Colleges, the University of California at Riverside, and the University of California at Santa Cruz. His research interests include person perception, mental health in Latino families, children and adolescents, acculturation, and multicultural assessment and psychotherapy. His areas of expertise include ethnopsychology, cross-cultural psychology, and international psychology. In working with students, Dr. Ramirez aims to (1) provide training in research and practice with the “different” in society, (2) help to de-colonize society, and (3) enable students to become multiracial educators, therapists, and ambassadors. Dr. Ramirez is chair of the sub-committee on minority issues within the Clinical Training Committee.
