We are hiring a tenure track eligible
Full Time Director for our thriving Psychology Training Clinic, The
Center for Behavioral Health, within the School of Professional
Psychology at Spalding University in Louisville, KY. The Center
(https://behavioralhealth.spalding.edu/) was founded in
2015, with the dual mission of training doctoral students in
clinical psychology and serving underserved populations in our
community through high quality, reduced cost mental health therapy
and assessment services in the heart of Louisville.
We seek candidates with expertise and
leadership in supervision of evidence-based mental health
interventions and assessments, both in person and via telehealth,
across a diverse range of populations. Applicants should
demonstrate commitment to high-quality supervision and teaching of
graduate students and have a vision for maintaining and expanding
outreach and partnerships across the local community. In addition,
the ideal candidate will enjoy working with and managing a team of
supervisors and front desk staff to execute the mission of the
Center. Candidates must demonstrate commitment to diversity,
equity, and inclusiveness and support the program’s mission towards
becoming ever more Anti-racist. In addition to leading, organizing,
and facilitating the daily operations of the Center, the Director
will also teach 2 clinically oriented courses in the School of
Professional Psychology and directly supervise 1-2 graduate
students in the clinic each year. Candidates for this
position should have a PhD or PsyD from an APA
accredited Clinical or Counseling Psychology program and be
licensed or license-eligible in the state of Kentucky. The
position offers flexible scheduling and an opportunity to engage in
the Center’s Faculty Practice Plan, which is an opportunity for
faculty to see private practice clients within the Center.
Candidates from under-represented and minoritized backgrounds are
especially encouraged to apply.
Spalding University was founded in
1814 to provide quality education, and our vibrant university
mission continues to be built around creating a diverse community
of learners committed to meeting the needs of our time through the
promotion of peace and justice. We offer a BA in Psychology
and a PsyD in clinical psychology (which has been fully accredited
by APA since 1989). Our doctoral program is a
scholar-practitioner model that offers outstanding generalist
training with opportunities to also gain focused training in
Forensic Psychology, Health Psychology, Neuropsychology
(child/adolescent and adult), or Advanced Clinical Psychology. A
strength of our university is its location in downtown Louisville,
which allows our students a wide variety of practicum experiences
working with traditionally marginalized and underserved
individuals. As a program, we are strongly committed to attracting
and supporting students and faculty with marginalized identities
who also tend to be underrepresented in the field of
psychology.
