The start date for our next new fellows will be August 26, 2024. We have one position available for the Adult Clinical and Health Psychology Postdoctoral Fellowship track for the 2024/2025 training year. We welcome your application.
Our program mission focuses on training future psychologists to function with high levels of competency, diverse clinical skills and leadership in multidisciplinary health care and community settings. Our fellowship is truly a
program of comprehensive training that incorporates opportunity to acquire significant depth and breadth of supervised clinical training and didactic activity with flexibility in programming across two core areas:
1. Outpatient psychiatric assessment, psychological testing, consultation and treatment in our Psychiatry and Behavioral Health Department with exposure to a full spectrum of adult psychological disorders.
2. Clinical health psychology consultation in affiliation with primary care and multiple specialty medical departments and medical teams.
We are a unique hybrid fellowship program, incorporating both Clinical and Clinical Health Psychology training into a combined curriculum. The fellowship is designed to help you develop professional skills and knowledge needed to provide a broad range of psychological services to diverse rural populations within multidisciplinary medical setting. Support for completion of the EPPP and Wisconsin state licensure as well as preparation for board certification are incorporated into the training experience.
Marshfield Clinic Health System (MCHS) provides an unparalleled training environment to achieve our program's mission. MCHS and Marshfield Medical Center is a unique setting where fellows benefit from learning in a large tertiary care medical center (one of the largest non-profit medical centers in the U.S.) with a clear sense of community that is supportive to both patients and staff. You will benefit from your training here, but you will soon recognize that your activities also benefit the patients and families you care for as part of the medical center's mission for exemplary patient care, education and research.
