"...why don't you set up a neuropsychological university outpatient clinic!" Abstract: Neuropsychological university outpatient clinics are rarer than psychotherapeutic university outpatient clinics. Nevertheless, they provide a good opportunity both to compensate for the underuse of neuropsychological services and at the same time to train the next generation of neuropsychologists. With the reorganization of the university clinical master's program, along with the possibility of specific further training in the field of clinical neuropsychology equivalent to that in the field of psychological psychotherapy, it is urgently necessary to create structures that are comparable to those found in further training in psychotherapy. The foundation of a neuropsychological university outpatient clinic may sound simple at first, but it usually presents the applicant with numerous problems that have to be solved in detail and also depends on the laws of the respective federal state. This article describes the establishment of the Neuropsychological Therapy Centre, the university outpatient clinic at the Ruhr University Bochum, with all its pitfalls and requirements.
