Full job description

Training at IBHG provides a unique opportunity in a private practice setting to not only be trained as a generalist, but also specialize in various treatment approaches and modalities. The Postdoctoral Program is a member of the Association of Psychology Postdoctoral and Internship Centers (APPIC). Our Member Number is 9265.

Training Structure

The postdoctoral training program requires 2000 hours completed within one year. Approximately 30 hours of the postdoc’s time each week will be spent in direct service to IBHG clients. Postdocs receive training in working with clients across the lifespan, including young children, adolescents, and older adults. They are assigned to 1-2 outpatient offices and carry a therapy caseload at that center for the full 12 months. In addition to their therapy caseload, postdocs are given the option to conduct psychological/neuropsychological assessments, which are tailored to the training needs and interests of the postdocs.

Postdocs participate in 4 hours of formal training each week, including 2 hours of individual supervision and 2 hours of learning activities. Additionally, postdocs formally present a professional topic of their choice twice per year at the trainees’ weekly didactic series. They also present client cases formally twice per year during therapy group supervision.

Illinois Behavioral Health Group's Postdoctoral Training Program fulfills the licensure requirements for postdoctoral supervision in the jurisdiction of the program (Illinois).

Prerequisite Requirements

Illinois Behavioral Health Group has 2 postdoctoral position available for the 2024-2025 postdoctoral year.

Applicants with previous experience treating children and adolescents and/or interest in working with individuals across the lifespan are preferred.

Former IBHG doctoral interns are valued members of the IBHG team and are encouraged to apply for the postdoctoral program. When IBHG doctoral interns are accepted to the postdoctoral program, the training team works to ensure the postdoctoral program offers a unique and developmentally appropriate training experience that builds on the postdoc’s professional growth and clinical areas of interest.
