The ADC/CCBT specializes in cognitive-behavioral therapy for anxiety-related problems, and applied research on the nature and treatment of anxiety. In addition, we are developing new programs for the treatment of depression, insomnia, adult ADHD, and other conditions.

This two-year fellowship, which is a specialty extension of the one-year APA-accredited postdoctoral residency program at the Institute of Living, is based on the Behavioral and Cognitive Psychology specialty (see http://www.apa.org/ed/graduate/specialize/behav.aspx) and follows the scientist-practitioner model of training.

Each postdoctoral fellow will assume primary responsibility for clinical research projects. The current study is an NIMH-funded investigation of cognitive-behavioral therapy for adults with panic disorder. Other projects, including research on compulsive hoarding and obsessive-compulsive disorder, may be added. All fellows will assume a variety of administrative and clinical responsibilities for studies. In addition, the fellows will provide assessment and outpatient cognitive-behavioral therapy for adults, adolescents, and children in the outpatient clinic, including intensive (daily) behavior therapy for obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, school refusal behavior, phobias, depression, and other problems. Numerous opportunities exist for independent basic or applied research as well.

Requirements: Postdoctoral applicants must have completed all requirements for the granting of the doctoral degree, including the completion of an APA-accredited predoctoral internship in clinical psychology. Candidates should also have significant training and experience in cognitive-behavioral intervention for anxiety and related disorders, as well as a demonstrated capacity to participate in basic and/or applied research.

To Apply: Applications will be accepted until January 15, 2012. Please send:

Get PAID to Learn Exposure Therapy!

Behavioral Tech Research, Inc. has developed an ONLINE course to teach clinicians Exposure Therapies for the treatment of clients with anxiety disorders.

 

THE (Free!)TRAINING:

This foundational course in exposure therapies uses a simulated clinical environment with cyber-clients, interactive exposure therapy manuals, and a ton of extra resources and expert videos to encourage practical and immediate application of the principles and procedures of exposure therapies. As the learner, you will be asked to use exposure therapy to treat virtual clients with various diagnoses and degrees of complexity.  The premise is simple: the best way to really learn exposure therapy is to do exposure therapy.That’s why we have designed the course to be highly interactive: everything included is intended to provide you with the closest experience possible to actually doing exposure therapy in a real-world setting.

WE PAY YOU TO LEARN:

 If you are eligible, you will receive FREE training AND earn up to $160 for completing the training and all assessments. That’s right, we pay you to learn!  You can expect your total contribution of time to be approximately 14-28 hours over about 5 months.  Eligible participants will be assessed once before receiving the training and three times post-training, spaced 6 weeks apart.

 

ARE YOU ELIGIBLE?

 

  • Are you a mental health treatment provider or student?
  • Are you naïve to Exposure Therapies?
  • Do you currently have at least 3 clients with an anxiety disorder?

 

WANT TO PARTICIPATE? GET STARTED!
