Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences

Psychology postdoctoral fellowship program

The Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences is recruiting four clinical psychology fellows. The fellowship will begin September 1, 2010 and continue for one year. In conjunction with the Sacramento County Division of Mental Health, we are recruiting four fellows to provide psychological services, under supervision, in three Division of Mental Health clinical programs associated with the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences: an adult inpatient service, an adult outpatient service, and a children's outpatient service. Two psychology fellows will be child-focused and based at the Sacramento County Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Services clinic, and two fellows will be adult-focused and will split their time between the county inpatient and outpatient facilities. In addition, fellows from both of these tracks may have the option of placing a minor emphasis on either adult or child work.

The stipend for all positions will be $36,000 plus university benefits. The positions will be open until filled with an application deadline of January 8, 2010. Early application is encouraged, and applications will be reviewed as they are received. The University of California is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer.

To apply, please submit the following:

  • Psychology postdoctoral fellowship program application (PDF)
  • A cover letter specifying the position to which you are applying and your aims (please be sure to describe which track you are applying for, adult or child)
  • Three letters of recommendation with the writer's signature over the back of a sealed envelope
  • A current curriculum vitae
  • A comprehensive psychological assessment report (with all client/patient identifiers removed)
