The Department of Family & Community Medicine at the Joe R. & Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine at UT Health San Antonio is accepting applications for 1 postdoc position for our new Primary Care Behavioral Health Fellowship! We are accepting applications until Nov. 30, 2025, and are inviting candidates for virtual interviews in December 2025 and January 2026. Start date is July 1, 2026.
This one-year full-time fellowship in Primary Care Behavioral Health has a central focus on primary care practice and the implementation of clinical health psychology in Family Medicine. The fellow will be a key member of the primary care team, providing behavioral consultation for our growing clinical practice and Family Medicine (FM) residency program. Candidates must have a doctoral degree in clinical or counseling psychology from an accredited psychology program (APA/CPA‐accredited program). Candidates with experience in providing behavioral health services in primary care settings within the Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) Consultation Model is a plus. Examples of clinical practice include the use of targeted assessment and interventions for behavioral health disorders (e.g., anxiety, depression, substance use, etc.), medical conditions (e.g., chronic pain, irritable bowel syndrome, diabetes management, etc.) and health behavior change (e.g., weight management, tobacco cessation, exercise, etc.). In addition to functioning as a Behavioral Health Consultant, duties also include assisting in the supervision of family medicine residents, medical students, and psychology residents/externs within PCBH consultation model at the Family Health Center (FHC) located at the Robert B. Green outpatient clinic campus. Candidates will also have the opportunity to assist the FM Behavioral Health Education Director with curriculum development and teaching for the FM residency. Candidates with interest and/or experience in consultation-liaison services within an inpatient medical setting are also encouraged to apply as the position can include time working with patients and trainees on the inpatient Family Medicine service.
A minor rotation (20% FTE) with the Pediatric Hematology/Oncology outpatient clinic will be incorporated into the fellow’s learning plan to support the professional development towards a well-rounded health service psychologist in primary care. Lastly, weekly, structured didactics focused on primary care will be provided. Supplemental didactics will be provided specific to the minor rotation on subspeciality topics as assigned. Additionally, clinical research and quality improvement initiatives that relate to primary care and primary care training are also encouraged. The fellow will be able to complete a research or quality improvement project of their choice that supports the primary care practice and are provided with research support and time to complete the project. Supervision toward independent licensure in Texas is provided, with candidates needing a provisional license upon acceptance.
