Program Description

The Postdoctoral Program at GPG is designed to support and train Postdoctoral Fellows to become confident and competent clinicians with a strong professional identity, astute clinical and assessment skills, and sense of purpose.

Fellows are trained as scholarly practitioners through a focus on direct clinical care and evidence-based practice. Skills are developed through multidisciplinary experiences in assessment, intervention, and consultation, including supervision and didactics. Multicultural competence and ethical practice are components of all areas of training. Upon completion of the training year, fellows will be prepared for licensure and for practice with individuals across the life span and diagnostic spectrum. The clinical caseload is generally 10 to 20 direct service hours per week and includes clinical and psychological assessments, individual therapy, couples therapy, and group therapy, primarily in-office but also via telehealth. The training program is flexible and tailored to the fellow’s interests and needs, based on agreement of supervisors and candidates. Although some activities are required, there is considerable room for customization in terms of clinical work.

The Postdoctoral Fellow will participate in two hours of weekly individual supervision and spend their remaining time engaged in direct patient hours, professional development, didactic training, case consultation, shadowing, community outreach, administrative projects, and documentation.
