Job Description & How to Apply Below

The Department of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia is seeking candidates for a full-time (Assistant Professor) clinical psychologist to provide integrated behavioral health care in the UVA Health University Medical Associates (UMA) Primary Care Clinic. Salary and tenure status are dependent upon qualifications and experience. Primary responsibilities will include providing outpatient, empirically-based psychological services (e.g., diagnostic assessment and intervention) to individuals with a wide variety of medical diagnoses and mental health concerns.

Many of the patients served within UMA are vulnerable patients who have limited access to mental health care and thus integrated psychological services are integral to their overall healthcare. The integrated behavioral health care provided within UMA has resulted in decreased depression and anxiety in their patients and improvement in secondary outcomes and increased engagement in primary care and improved adherence to medical care plans.

UMA is a training clinic for residents in internal medicine and provides opportunities for contributing to medical education.

Responsibilities
  • Psychological Assessment and Treatment: The primary focus of this position is clinical care (80%). Faculty will conduct psychological diagnostic evaluations of patients referred by their primary care providers to identify psychosocial factors impacting their health and well-being and provide evidence-based individual psychotherapy.
  • Behavioral Health Integration: Faculty will collaborate with interdisciplinary healthcare teams to integrate behavioral health services into the medical care setting, ensuring comprehensive and holistic care for patients.
  • Education: Opportunities for teaching include didactics for internal medicine residents and medical student shadowing.
  • Program Development: Faculty will participate in the development and implementation of new programs and initiatives aimed at improving the psychological well-being and overall health outcomes of UMA populations.
  • Location

    The University of Virginia Medical Center is located in the midst of the main university grounds of the University of Virginia. The University of Virginia is annually ranked as one of the premier public institutions in the United States and is located in Charlottesville, a picturesque small but cosmopolitan city that offers a blend of historic charm, natural beauty, and cultural vibrancy.
