Post Doctoral Fellowship in Clinical Psychology
Description: Streamwood Behavioral Health Systems (SBHS) is accepting applications for a post-doctoral fellowship in Clinical Psychology. The fellowship provides opportunity for direct delivery of services to patients, supervision and training of graduate students, administrative responsibilities, and program development. Specifically, post-doctoral fellows will conduct diagnostic assessment of patients, maintain a therapy caseload, and conduct group therapy with patients. Direct-care responsibilities will be primarily devoted to the child and adolescent inpatient program, though opportunities with other programs are possible (e.g., adult inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization). SBHS serves a culturally diverse population and treats patients with a varied array of psychiatric conditions including psychosis, anxiety and depression, ADHD, disruptive behavior disorders, and autism and other neurodevelopmental conditions. The fellow will be a part of a multidisciplinary team and consult with psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, nurses, and other paraprofessionals. In addition to the provision of direct-care services, the fellow will help in training and supervising graduate externship students, as well as participate in program development and administrative responsibilities. SBHS offers a comprehensive array of services encompassing outpatient services, a partial hospitalization program, acute inpatient hospitalization, and a therapeutic day school. SBHS has been serving the Chicagoland community since 1991. We are dedicated to providing HOPE to children, adolescents, adults, and families though utilization of evidenced based practices, compassion for our patients in addressing their needs, and helping patients within their communities.
