of Westchester and Manhattan
Cognitive and Behavioral
Consultants (CBC) invites applications for a one-year post-doctoral fellowship
beginning September of 2016. CBC is an evidence-based clinical and training
center founded in 2004 by Drs. Lata McGinn and Alec Miller, both of whom are
internationally recognized experts in their respective fields of Cognitive
Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). CBC is comprised
of a select group of highly skilled clinicians, educators and researchers who specialize
in CBT and DBT. We provide comprehensive treatment for a variety of disorders,
and treat children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. We have a collegial and intellectually stimulating
environment and offer an outstanding opportunity to receive comprehensive
training and supervision in CBT and DBT.
Post-doctoral fellows will conduct individual, family and group therapies, and co-lead one or more CBT groups and/or DBT skills training groups with highly trained therapists/supervisors. Fellows receive several hours of individual and group supervision per week coupled with participation in a weekly DBT therapist consultation team and didactic seminars on CBT and DBT. This comprehensive training experience also includes monthly CBT consultation team, quarterly case conferences, as well as a lecture series in which nationally and internationally renowned speakers are invited from the CBT and DBT communities. Fellows also supervise pre-doctoral psychology students, and receive supervision and training in this area.

Post-doctoral fellows participate
in core rotations in outpatient CBT and DBT with children, adolescents and adults
with options for electives in the following areas:
- School
consultation (CBT and DBT)
- Research
and publishing
- Web-based
outcomes monitoring and training
- Training
toward DBT Certification by DBT-LBC
In addition, post-doctoral
fellows will be eligible to apply for an optional 2nd year of supervision and
training as a licensed psychologist. This role will entail the following (in
addition to direct clinical service): 1) supervising pre-doctoral psychology
students, 2) further developing areas of specialization and interest (e.g.,
starting specialized groups, giving talks in the community, co-authoring
manuscripts, school consultation), and 3) optional training towards Academy of
Cognitive Therapy certification (for which CBC would cover the application
costs). This addition to our post-doctoral program reflects both the
expansion of our practice, and our dedication to providing comprehensive
training that prepares psychologists for multiple career opportunities in the
field.
This is an outstanding
opportunity to join our cohesive team of clinicians who are dedicated to
clinical training and to providing evidence-based services. To learn more about
