NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medicine

Description: The Department of Psychiatry at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital (NYPH) Westchester Division in White Plains, New York is accepting applications for a 1- to 2-year postdoctoral psychology fellowship position available in our Adult Outpatient Division. The Adult Track fellowship aims to prepare the next generation of scientist-practitioners for careers in academic research and clinical applications. In consultation with a member of the psychology faculty, the fellow will develop a plan to address their specific training goals. Fellows will be based in the adult outpatient clinic, where they will engage in the evaluation and treatment (individual and group-based) of adults presenting with a wide range of diagnoses. Fellows will have the option of working on one of the many specialty inpatient units of the hospital (e.g., Women’s Inpatient CBT, Affective Disorders, Personality Disorders), where there are opportunities to participate in program development and supervision of psychology externs. A variety of didactics are offered for adult fellows to enhance their training experience and engage in professional development (e.g., CBT, DBT, Personality Disorders Institute). Participation in a clinical research elective is encouraged. Fellows accepted to the fellowship may apply for a 20% research elective with a faculty mentor. Fellows may work with research mentors at either the White Plains or Manhattan campus.
