Center for Anxiety accepts applications for Postdoctoral Fellowship positions on a rolling basis at multiple office locations.

Our postdoctoral fellowship is intended for graduates of psychology doctoral programs who have completed all of their doctoral coursework and clinical requirements and are seeking supervised clinical hours in order to meet requirements for licensure. Our program places an emphasis on comprehensive clinical training experience that offers both breadth and depth in evidence-based clinical practice. Our training year for postdoctoral fellows starts on September 1st, 2023 and ends August 31st, 2024, however, exceptions for an early/late start date may be accommodated in certain cases. Postdoctoral fellows at the Center for Anxiety are full-time positions. Applicants for part-time positions will be considered, however such applications are generally less competitive.

  • Fellows spend at least 50% of their time providing clinical services to adults, adolescents, and/or children within the Center for Anxiety’s outpatient and intensive outpatient programs
  • Over the course of the year, trainees build foundational clinical skills and competencies that are necessary for independent professional practice
  • Fellows receive at least one hour of individual supervision, one hour of weekly rounds, DBT consultation team, two hours of didactic training, and ad hoc consultation as needed with members of our supervisory and/or clinical administrative staff

 

Qualifications of applicants must include all of the following:

  1. A doctoral degree (or necessary permits as dictated by the state of employment)
  2. A year-long clinical internship in clinical, counseling or school psychology
  3. Strong diagnostic skills including experience with structured clinical assessments

  5. A willingness and capacity to handle high risk cases on an outpatient and intensive outpatient basis  
  6. A dedication to provide the highest standard of evidence-based care

 

Center for Anxiety and our training programs strongly value diversity and this value is explicitly reflected across multiple areas of the training experience. The training program makes efforts to create an equitable, inclusive, and affirming learning environment. We also provide equal opportunity to all prospective trainees and staff, and do not discriminate due to a person’s age, disability, ethnicity, sex, gender identity, language, national origin, race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, social economic status, or other factors that are not predictive of or related to success as a postdoctoral fellow.

 

Candidates should submit their application at the bottom of the page. Applicants should submit a letter of interest, current Curriculum Vitae, and include names of 2-3 references. Applicants are asked to please specify in their cover letters which of our sites are geographically feasible, and which is most preferred (note that we have adopted a hybrid remote/in-person model, and staff will be on site 3 days per week).

Culture Quotes

 

“Center for Anxiety brought me all the way from my internship in Las Vegas, NV, four years ago, and I am so glad I made the move both geographically and professionally. I’ve been privileged to watch the organization grow from grassroots private practice to a world-renowned treatment center that caters to a diverse range of mental health needs. Not only anxiety!”

All staff ideas are considered, and staff are empowered to make improvements that benefit our team or our patients (e.g. starting another psychotherapy group, creating another program, offering a support group).”
