Fordham University Counseling and Psychological Services Postdoctoral Fellowship
Fordham University Counseling and Psychological Services (CPS) seeks to promote the overall personal, social, and academic development of the student body through a variety of specialized professional services. It functions within the Division of Student Affairs in concert with other departments united in promoting student development and wellness, including Health Services, Disability Services, Residential Life, and the Alcohol and Other Drug Education program. The CPS staff is comprised of both full time and part time psychologists, psychiatric consultants, a postdoctoral psychology fellow, graduate psychology externs, psychiatry residents, and a secretarial support staff.
CPS offers a twelve-month part-time postdoctoral fellowship in university mental health at the Rose Hill site that will start in September 2009. The postdoctoral fellowship provides a comprehensive training experience in university mental health with an emphasis on clinical assessment, individual and group therapy, crisis intervention, consultation, campus outreach and prevention, and supervision of pre-doctoral psychology externs. Participation and leadership in weekly case conferences and seminar son psychodynamic psychotherapy constitute core components of training in addition to intensive supervision by senior level staff. We encourage a high degree of autonomy in a supportive environment.
The large, urban university environment offers an appealing combination of challenging and varied clinical work in a supportive professional setting. CPS has offices at both of the University’s campuses – Bronx (Rose Hill) and Manhattan (Lincoln Center).
Applicants must have completed a pre-doctoral internship and all requirements for a doctoral degree from a regionally accredited institution of higher learning prior to beginning the fellowship. We will consider applicants who have completed all degree requirements other than dissertation. We are committed to a diverse work environment and welcome applicants of any background. Fordham University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
