I finished my last day of work at Munroe Meyer today...300 hours of clinical work and research. It has been a wonderful experience. Although I came most interested in neuropsychology, much of what I saw here falls in the category of behavioral pediatrics... which is basically how to change behavior in children. I saw over 70 kids during my time here! Here's a list of the types of things we worked to fix: Aggression (biting, hitting, screaming), Lying, Tics, Speech and Language Delays, Developmental Delays, Self-Injurious Behavior, Depression, Memory Problems, Sleep Disruptions, Feeding Problems, etc. Munroe Meyer is extremely behaviorally-based, so problem-solving was done from a behaviorist standpoint. It was awesome to be able to jump into such in-depth clinical work. I'm definitely going to miss it here!
I'm flying out of Omaha tomorrow to head to Chicago for the weekend! I'll leave you with my favorite part of Nebraska... their motto.
