The CBC one year postdoctoral fellowship offers adherent training and supervision in comprehensive CBT and DBT for a broad range of disorders with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families in a collegial and intellectually stimulating environment. Postdoctoral fellows also co-lead evidence based CBT and DBT skills groups with our licensed clinical staff.
Beyond the core training CBT and DBT across the lifespan, post-postdoctoral fellows have the option to select among the following specialized programs:
Child and Adolescent Anxiety and Related Disorders Program
Selective Mutism Groups and Intensives
Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)
Executive Functioning
The intensive SAGE Program for young adults
OCD intensive program
Social Anxiety Groups
Our comprehensive training experience begins with two intensive trainings in CBT (5-day CBT Comprehensive Training) and DBT (Psychwire DBT Foundational Training). These intensive trainings provide fundamental and advanced didactics with experiential learning to supplement and enhance the practice of learners from diverse training backgrounds.
Fellows receive five plus hours of individual and group supervision per week, and attend weekly consultation teams, didactic seminars, disorder-specific case conferences, and invited speaker series. Fellows may also have the opportunity to teach and provide training at local agencies, present at national conferences, publish manuscripts, and observe school consultation provided by our clinical staff at local schools and agencies in the region.
In addition, post doctoral fellows are eligible to apply for staff positions. The first year staff position provides them with the opportunity to:
Receive ongoing individual clinical consultation
Supervise predoctoral psychology students
Develop areas of specialization and interest (e.g., starting specialized groups, giving talks in the community, co-authoring manuscripts)
Participate in CBC’s growing school-based DBT and CBT training and consultation
Apply for Academy of Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies (A-CBT) certification (for which CBC would cover the application costs)
Apply for DBT Certification by DBT-LBC. Our post doctoral program reflects our dedication to providing evidence-based comprehensive training that prepares psychologists for multiple career opportunities in the field.
Advance their training in previously chosen specialized programs or additional specialized programs.
Applicants should have completed their doctoral degree and internship by the start date, and have prior foundational experience conducting CBT with children, adolescents, adults and families. Experience or interest in DBT is highly desirable.
Interested applicants should submit electronic copies of their CV, cover letter, and three letters of reference.
