Description: The mission and objective of the VAMC Hampton Postdoctoral Training Program in Women's Mental Health and Trauma is to train psychologists to provide quality mental health care and evidenced-based/empirically-supported treatment to women Veterans. The primary goal of the postdoctoral program is for fellows to develop a full range of skills required for independent functioning as a psychologist within the area of women's mental health. Within this goal, we are committed to the scholar-practitioner model of training; fellows are expected to utilize current literature on empirically supported assessment and treatment in planning and delivering services. This approach is consistent with the strong multidisciplinary, evidenced-based training culture at VAMC Hampton.
Clinical Training Rotations include the following:
Women's Outpatient Mental Health (12 months)
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Clinical Team (6 months)
Military Sexual Trauma Treatment Team (6 months)
