Palm Beach County Youth Affairs Highridge Family Center, Palm Beach, FL, USA - 1 postdoctoral position
Position:
This Post Doctoral Residency is within the Palm Beach County Youth Affairs Division at Highridge Family Center in West Palm Beach, Florida. This is a one-year position. Start date will be on October 3, 2011. Emphasis is on intervention and assessment in a residential setting with at-risk youth populations and their families.
Description: The overall goal of the Youth Affairs Division is to foster healthy individual and family functioning in families where youth have been identified as “at-risk” for entering the juvenile justice system, dropping out of school, getting involved with gangs, running away from home, substance use, and entering the child protective system. This goal is accomplished through family, group, and individual therapy, psycho-education, parent training, psychological evaluation, consultative services, and community outreach offered across community-based, office, and residential settings. Services are provided free to Palm Beach County residents.
The Palm Beach County Youth Affairs Division employs psychologists, Master’s level clinicians, clinical social workers, marriage and family therapists, family counselors, residential counselors, and nurses. The agency is also an interdisciplinary training site for pre-doctoral psychology interns, psychology practicum students, social work interns, mental health counseling interns, and marriage and family therapy interns, as well as the site of a Palm Beach County alternative school program. Psychology residents will receive primary supervision from licensed psychologists. Consultation from other staff will be provided as needed. The overall goal of the post doctoral psychology residency program at the Palm Beach County Youth Affairs Division is to support the development of psychology residents into professional psychologists. Psychology residents will integrate fundamental skills consistent with the philosophy of the Youth Affairs Division. This philosophy incorporates a developmental training model utilized throughout the Division with the varying levels of professional staff, behavioral staff, and trainees from multiple disciplines. A strengths-based perspective has been a cornerstone in the Division’s philosophy of training as well as prevention and intervention work with children, adolescents, parents, and families. Additionally, Palm Beach County is a culturally, ethnically, and socioeconomically diverse area that is becoming more diverse with each passing year. As such, the Division’s philosophy integrates a multicultural/diversity emphasis.
Psychology residents will have opportunities to work with a range of diverse populations with a variety of presenting issues. Training Site: Highridge Family Center is a 48-bed residential facility serving at-risk youth between the ages of 11 and 16 who reside in Palm Beach County. Typically, the families seeking services through Highridge have been struggling with conflicted family relations, poor academics, disruptive school behavior, drug experimentation, poor peer group choices, minor law infractions, and emotional difficulties. In conjunction with the School District of Palm Beach County, residents of Highridge are provided alternative education while they are enrolled in the program. Referral sources include schools, parents, prevention and diversion programs, as well as former clients. The facility is divided into two male and two female dormitory-style “houses,” each with the capacity for 12 residents. The youth live at the facility Monday through Friday, returning to their homes on weekends and school holidays to practice newly learned skills with their families. A Family Therapist provides family, group, and individual therapy, and three Residential Counselors (two day shift, one night shift) provide behavior management and therapeutic milieu activities for each house. The site utilizes a multidisciplinary team approach to include working with psychologists, nurses, master’s level therapists, school behavioral personnel, teachers, and bachelor’s level dorm counselors.

Primary Activities:
The postdoctoral position involves a blend of treatment and assessment activities, in addition to supervision, teaching and research opportunities. Clinical activities will focus primarily on child, adolescent, and family assessment and treatment.
Treatment approaches will include an emphasis on family, systemic, behavioral, and cognitive-behavioral interventions for youth and their families presenting with a diverse set of clinical issues. Residential treatment activities include family, group, and individual therapy, therapeutic milieu activities, and treatment team consultations.

The postdoctoral resident will have access to professional development opportunities through the Youth Affairs Education Center, including a full range of didactic offerings. Further, the post doctoral resident will provide training to parents and community members, in addition to Youth Affairs Division staff and trainees. There will be opportunities to mentor trainees.

Azusa Pacific University, Azusa, CA, USA - 1 Postdoctoral position
I recently received approval for a new, part-time position (24 hours, 10 months - no benefits). Though I'm looking for a "psychologist" I would consider a post-doc for this position.
If you know anyone who is looking and you think would be a good fit, please send them to our HR website to apply (http://www.apu.edu/humanresources/positions/studentlife/).
Thanks!
Bill

Weill Cornell Medical College, New York Presbyterian Hospital, White Plains, NY, USA - 1 fellowship in clinical neuropsychology
POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN CLINICAL NEUROPSYCHOLOGY
Due to unanticipated funding, the Department of Psychiatry of Weill Cornell Medical College at NewYork–Presbyterian Hospital’s campus in White Plains, NY is pleased to announce that we are accepting applications for one one-year renewable postdoctoral residency in Clinical Neuropsychology. This residency is designed to provide advanced training in Clinical Neuropsychology in the spirit of the Houston Conference.
This position is based in the Outpatient Department that treats children, adolescents, adults and families presenting with a range of psychiatric disorders and, not infrequently, co-morbid neurological conditions. Neuropsychological referrals across the lifespan may come from inpatient and outpatient clinicians across all programs on campus; referrals of children and adolescents predominate. Many are direct referrals from the community.
The resident’s experience combines clinical, didactic, and research activities, with opportunity for teaching and supervision based upon one’s skill set. There is also provision for the resident to do initial psychiatric evaluations and provide individual, group or family interventions for children and adolescents. In one of nine postdoctoral Psychology tracks, the clinical neuropsychology resident participates in the diverse practice of psychology in a university medical center. Didactics may include neuropsychological assessment seminars, departmental and Psychology division grand rounds, specialized training in CBT, DBT, or Transference Focused Psychotherapy (TFP), as well as seminars tailored for advanced training in child-adolescent and geriatric Psychiatry. Under the mentorship and supervision of licensed psychologists, the resident can tailor the program to meet his/her career goals.
Applicants must have the doctoral degree in psychology or neuropsychology from an APA- accredited program. Training and experience in the assessment of children and adolescents is required; training and experience in the evaluation of adults is desired, but not essential. Also, applicants must have submitted the materials required to obtain the limited permit issued by the New York State Department of Education before their start date. Salary is competitive with full health benefits and vacation package included.
Application Deadline: Ongoing until position is filled.
Anticipated Start Date: August 31, 2011
Interested applicants should send a letter of intent, current curriculum vitae, three letters of reference and at least one sample report to:
