CLINICAL PRACTICE

     Dr. Kraus spends most of his time at Layh and Associates in Yellow Springs, Ohio -- a group practice with 11 other psychologists and mental health professionals. Primarily focused on adults and older adults, he provides clinical services that include psychotherapy, psychological evaluations of a wide variety, drug and alcohol evaluations and counseling, and competency evaluations. Most of his time at the group practice, though, is spent providing counseling and psychotherapy.

     Dr. Kraus provides psychological services in three Dayton area nursing homes -- Livingston Care Center of Dayton and The Widow's Home of Dayton, and Friends Care Center of Yellow Springs.

     Dr. Kraus is on the faculty of the School of Professional Psychology at Wright State University where he teaches Geriatric Clinical Psychology.

     Dr Kraus also provides a variety of workshops and professional seminars including the very popular Uncovering the Mysteries of Alzheimer's:   Plain Talk and Practical Tools. This highly interactive workshop is a "must-see" for anyone interested in learning about this devastating disease.
