Postdoctoral Fellow

Clinical training involves the evaluation, treatment, and referral of our undergraduate and graduate students. There are extensive opportunities to work with late adolescents and young adults and, to a lesser extent, with adults of other ages.

There are rich opportunities to treat a very diverse clientele in terms of ethnicity, gender, culture, sexuality, and socioeconomic background. The clientele presents with a wide range of problems including (but not limited to) adjustment difficulties, relationship concerns, major affective disorders, eating disorders, anxiety disorders, substance abuse concerns, learning disabilities, and often present in psychological crisis.

The clinical caseload is generally 18-22 hours per week and includes intake/assessment, crisis management, and individual and group psychotherapy. It is expected that the trainees take advantage of the many opportunities to participate in campus outreach and education. Residents will also have the opportunity to supervise master's level trainees as well as gain experience conducting learning disability and psychodiagnostic assessments. The remaining hours per week are spent in supervision, outreach, case consultation, seminars, Wellness Educator activities, and chart documentation.

Exhibit behavior that supports the mission, vision, and values of the university. Communicate and employ interpersonal actions that model high standards of professional, responsible, accountable, and ethical conduct. Demonstrate a commitment to outstanding customer service.

• A Doctorate degree in Clinical or Counseling Psychology from an APA- accredited program by the time of hire.

• Counseling experience in a university setting preferred.
• Knowledge and experience working with college age developmental issues and more severe psychological disturbances.
