Job Description
Children's Behavioral and Mental Health Center is undergoing rapid growth and transformation. We are working to innovate the mental health care system for children in Georgia and are recruiting dedicated team members who are eager to join this mission.
Children's is seeking a Clinical Psychologist with experience in using evidenced-based family therapy. This position is eligible for a faculty appointment through the Emory University School of Medicine, if desired. Rank is commensurate with experience. Candidates with a strong background in the application of functional family therapy (FFT), parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT), and/or child-parent psychotherapy (CPP) preferred.
The psychologist will work within the Children's general outpatient clinic, supporting families using systemic interventions. Assessment and treatment will focus on the improvement of family processes, parent-child relationships, and sibling relationships through psychoeducation and skill development, using a developmental approach and strengths-based work. Children and adolescents within the family often demonstrate symptoms related to disruptive behavior, anxiety, depression, and trauma and may also receive individual therapy within the clinic. Suitable candidates will have a dedication to promoting and offering culturally-sensitive and inclusive approaches to therapy as well fostering inclusion, diversity, and belonging within the Children's community. Appointments are a mixture of in-person and telehealth.
Psychologists work closely with child and adolescent psychiatrists, psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners, behavioral and mental health therapists (LCSWs and LPCs), and nurse case managers to develop and implement a comprehensive care plan for each patient. Psychologists participate in the training of psychology doctoral interns and postdoctoral fellows as well other behavioral mental health trainees. Opportunities for program development across our acute clinical care settings are possible.
This is a full-time position, with split between direct clinical care and administrative time. Applicants should have a PhD or PsyD from an APA/CPA accredited program and must have completed an APA accredited child internship. Additionally, applicants must have expertise in treating children and adolescents using evidence-based treatment approaches. This position is open to both early career and experienced psychologists. Applicants should be licensed or licensed-eligible in Georgia prior to employment and must obtain board certification within hospital timelines. Children's strives to meet the healthcare needs of all patients, regardless of their socioeconomic status and insurance coverage.
Summary:
Oversees and develops assessments and/or treatments for specialty pediatric population. Assists with translation of findings into therapeutic approaches which can be utilized by a transdisciplinary or interdisciplinary team. May supervise students/fellows, pre-doctoral interns, and/or postdoctoral fellows. Cooperates and collaborates with parents, caretakers, and other professionals to meet the total needs of the patient and family. Counsels and educates families. Assists with the coordination of a clinical database and promotes research.
