About the role
Site: The McLean Hospital Corporation
Who We Serve
McLean Hospital’s Trauma Continuum Partial Hospital and Outpatient Program offers psychiatric and psychological services for adults (18 years of age or older) who have histories of trauma, and are diagnosed with a trauma-related disorder, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and/or dissociative disorders, including Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID).
Partial Hospital Services
The focus of partial hospital treatment includes establishing stability through the acquisition and application of grounding techniques, education, and connection with others who share lived experience. Treatment is informed by evidence-based therapies and interventions designed for treating PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder and other trauma-related problems. The group-based treatment program is designed for individuals who need more structure and intensive treatment than can be received from outpatient treatment alone. Additionally, the program serves as an adjunct to individual therapy or as a support during transition from inpatient hospitalization to one’s home environment.
Outpatient Services
Our Outpatient Program offers adjunctive, time-limited, evidence-based, individual and group psychotherapy as well as medication management services. Outpatient services focus on processing and improving trauma-related thoughts, feelings, and behaviors as well as reconnecting with important relationships and resuming meaningful activities. A prerequisite for trauma-focused treatment at the outpatient level is the ability to maintain safety and stability and the effective use of grounding and self-regulation skills.
By meeting HMS teaching responsibilities, the candidate will be proposed for a concurrent academic appointment as an Instructor in Psychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
Candidates must have a doctoral degree in Clinical or Counseling Psychology from an APA-accredited program, have completed an APA-accredited internship, and be licensed (or eligible for licensure) as a Psychologist HSP in the state of Massachusetts. Qualified individuals will have experience using assessment tools and treatment interventions for trauma-related disorders such as the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (CAPS-5), CPT, PE, DBT-PE, EMDR, etc.
General Summary:
Conduct psychodiagnostic interviews and provide timely case conceptualization, patient feedback and treatment recommendations. Provide time-limited evidence-based outpatient treatment for trauma-related disorders among adults. Provide group psychotherapy for partial hospital program patients. Collaborate and participate in peer consultation with a multidisciplinary team of trauma treatment providers and experts.
This person will have the responsibility to provide clinical services for assigned patients, as well as to participate in the activities of the Trauma Continuum.
