Job Description

Summary

We are currently recruiting 2 full-time clinical psychology postdoctoral fellowship positions for the Ben Taub Hospital/Baylor College of Medicine Adult Inpatient/Outpatient Track.

 

Ben Taub Hospital is a county-funded general hospital built in 1963 to serve the needs of the Houston area. The Psychiatry Service at BTH provides inpatient and outpatient treatment for medically indigent and psychiatrically impaired persons. As a member of the Psychiatry team, the postdoctoral fellow will provide assessment and therapy services to psychiatric patients in the outpatient and inpatient setting. For the upcoming academic year (2025-2026), there will be two full-time postdoctoral fellowships available for the Baylor College of Medicine/Ben Taub Hospital Adult Inpatient/Outpatient Track.

 

Postdoctoral fellows of the BTH/BCM Adult Inpatient/Outpatient Track will complete their fellowships through Ben Taub Mental Health Services located at BTH. During the fellowship year, postdoctoral fellows will spend six months in the BTMHS outpatient clinic and 6 months on the adult acute psychiatric inpatient unit at BTH. On the outpatient rotation, fellows will provide psychological assessments and therapy services to psychiatric outpatients and serve as a primary clinician for the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). On the inpatient rotation, the fellow will become an integral member of two multi-disciplinary treatment teams. Fellows function as consultants on the treatment teams and provide services that include individual therapy, group therapy, and brief psychological assessments to patients admitted to the inpatient unit. The fellow will also conduct psychological assessment and consultation services to medical inpatients through the hospital Consultation and Liaison Service (C&L). In addition to the primary rotation duties, each fellow will have the opportunity to choose an Elective Rotation (i.e. individual therapy, research, specialized outpatient groups, human trafficking patients, assessment). Fellows will also have opportunities to work with psychiatry residents, teach psychology seminars to medical students, and participate in ongoing research protocols. The training program is flexible and tailored to the fellow's interests and needs upon agreement between supervisors and fellow. Some activities are required, but there is considerable room for customization within the general categories of training activities.
