** Position Overview
** The position will primarily involve providing individual psychotherapy to optimize adjustment and coping.  Other clinical opportunities include providing outpatient psychotherapy to adults with diagnosis of cancer, FND, amputation and burn injury. Our rehabilitation psychology division consists of a dynamic group of 14 faculty members.  Most of our faculty work on various inpatient medical units (eg. Stroke, TBI, SCI, Trauma, Burn, Oncology, and General Rehab) and outpatient clinics (Ambulatory Services, Psychosocial Oncology, Burn Clinic, and Vestibular Disorders).

This position would primarily involve providing outpatient psychotherapy with the potential to work in an inpatient setting as our division’s presence expands at the medical center.  The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center offers highly competitive pay, malpractice insurance and a great benefits package (which includes a yearly CME fund).
