Job Description:
Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA) is pleased to announce an
opening for a full-time faculty pediatric neuropsychologist to join
our award-winning Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
within the Department Psychiatry. CHA is a community-based
distributed health system that includes the Cambridge, Everett, and
Somerville Hospitals. The child and adolescent division provides
outpatient care to youth and families in two outpatient clinics,
three high school-based clinics, and via integrated care
consultation in 11 primary care clinics. CHA is a primary teaching
site for Harvard Medical School (HMS). Our system serves a
culturally and ethnically diverse population; more than half of our
patients (56%) identify as non-white and one quarter (25%) speak a
primary language other than English. Our outpatient services
include sub-specialty care in the assessment and treatment of both
neurodevelopmental disorders and early psychosis. Our child and
adolescent psychiatry division serves children and adolescents with
complex psychiatric and developmental conditions. Experience with
assessing cognitive and socio-emotional functioning associated with
severe mental illness (particularly complex trauma, psychosis, and
clinical high risk), neurodevelopment, and neurological/medical
complications from early childhood to early adulthood in culturally
diverse community health settings is preferred. Skills in cognitive
remediation are also preferred. In our culturally diverse community
health setting, we value experience and skills in providing
multilingual and culturally-sensitive neuropsychological services.
Duties include completing neuropsychological assessments, patient
and family education, consultation with colleagues in other
medical, neurological and mental health specialties. The role will
also include occasional consultation to our inpatient service,
which includes a neurodevelopmental unit, child unit, and
adolescent unit. In addition, our division combines advanced
clinical care with academic engagement. The psychology division has
a robust and vibrant training program that includes psychology
practicum students, interns and postdoctoral fellows. The position
includes teaching and supervising psychology interns and
postdoctoral fellows and the faculty member holds an appointment at
Harvard Medical School. Faculty are encouraged to engage in
clinical research that is relevant to our community-oriented
mission. We are seeking both early-career and mid-career applicants
to provide a supportive and vibrant team experience.
Neuropsychologists will join a vibrant team of adult and pediatric
neuropsychologists in psychiatry for consultation and
collaboration. Applicants must hold a doctoral degree in clinical
or counseling psychology from an APA/CPA accredited program, have
completed an APA/CPA accredited pre-doctoral internship and
postdoctoral residency in Neuropsychology. Qualified candidates
will also be board certified or eligible for board certification
