Academic Neuropsychologist/Clinical Psychologist for Autism Program

Academic Neuropsychologist/Clinical Psychologist for Autism Program The Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychology (CAPP) at MetroHealth Medical Center/Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine is seeking a full-time neuropsychologist or clinical psychologist for an immediate opening in our interdisciplinary autism assessment clinic. This position will serve adolescent and adult patients, but pediatric opportunities are available for lifespan trained individuals. The Division faculty provide clinical care within a medical setting, including our interdisciplinary Autism and Neurobehavior Clinic located in the Parma, Ohio location of MetroHealth Medical System. All faculty have academic appointments at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine and are expected to be actively involved in academic training activities. There is a strong tradition of interprofessional, integrated care service delivery models in this academic health system. We are seeking candidates with experience in the assessment and diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) [i.e., formal training or willingness to achieve reliability on all ADOS Modules] to provide services in the MetroHealth Autism and Neurobehavior Clinic. The MAAC Clinic is an interdisciplinary clinic providing high-quality, diagnostic and assessment services to individuals across the lifespan with suspected ASDs from diverse backgrounds. We are a dynamic and driven group of professionals devoted to serving the patients of Northern Ohio with cultural humility in a wellness focused manner. Primary responsibilities for this position include provision of diagnostic assessment to adolescents and adults with suspected ASD, supervision of neurodevelopmental and pediatric neuropsychology residents and fellows, and participation in the academic medical education of medical students, residents, and fellows. Additional academic and clinical pursuits are available and may be pursued according to individual interest. Some possible opportunities include developing and implementing training opportunities for medical providers on caring for individuals with developmental disabilities, consultation with educational and vocational partners, engagement in clinical research activities in the field of developmental disabilities, and assisting in program development for comprehensive transition services for individuals with developmental disabilities, outpatient programs for severe or intensive behaviors in patients with autism, and primary care models of autism screening and diagnosis. Qualifications include the following: fluent English verbal communication skills, a Ph.D./Psy.D. from an APA-accredited clinical psychology graduate program with primary interest and background in clinical psychology, clinical internship in an APA accredited program, completion of a neuropsychological or clinical post-doctoral fellowship, and license eligibility in Ohio by start date. We can provide additional training and supervision for candidates to achieve reliability on ADOS Modules; however, experience with assessment of ASD is highly preferred. This full-time faculty position will have a competitive salary for academic rank. MetroHealth offers competitive compensation and excellent benefits, including an impressive pension program with a generous match through the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System. As an academic institution, all MetroHealth faculty hold academic appointments at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine.
