Every day, more than 40,000 Hartford Health Care colleagues come to work with one thing in common:
Pride in what we do, knowing every moment matters here. We invite you to become part of Connecticut’s most comprehensive healthcare network.

The Institute of Living, one of the first mental health centers in the U.S., remains one of America’s leading not-for-profit centers for patient care, research and education in the fields of behavioral, psychiatric and addiction disorder. Through our dedicated, experienced and skilled clinicians, we provide patients and their families with the highest quality of personalized care. Programs are offered for children, adolescents and adults struggling with mental illness as well as offering services specializing in Anxiety, Eating Disorders, and Geriatric Services.

The Department of Neuropsychology at the Institute of Living/Hartford Hospital is pleased to announce a position opening for a full-time general clinical neuropsychologist to work within the new premier, Class A ambulatory Ayer Neuroscience Institute Multispecialty Neurology Center (Norwich, CT). This new center will bring together neurosurgery, pain management, memory care, PM&R, headache, epilepsy, stroke, neuromuscular, neuroimmunology, infusion, general neurology, primary care, rheumatology, and advanced diagnostic imaging—all under one roof.

The clinical neuropsychologist will join our growing team of dedicated and skilled neuropsychologists. This position is a collaboration between the Institute of Living and Hartford Health Care’s Ayer Neuroscience Institute and reflects our commitment to embedding behavioral health services in medical settings throughout the system.

The neuropsychologist is an essential member of the comprehensive care team and performs outpatient neuropsychological evaluations and consultations for adult patients with neurological disorders (e.g., neurodegenerative disease, autoimmune disease, neuromuscular conditions, movement disorders, etc.). The neuropsychologist works closely with the multidisciplinary team to promote an understanding of brain functioning and impairment, inform diagnosis, and develop an appropriate treatment plan. The neuropsychologist is adept at gathering relevant historical information, analyzing, integrating and interpreting data and findings, completing timely, detailed and accurate documentation, and providing comprehensive feedback to the team.

The Department of Neuropsychology enjoys active involvement in the hospital’s rich history of training and provision of exceptional care. Departmental neuropsychologists participate in clinical care, research, training, and multidisciplinary collaboration at multiple sites within Hartford Health Care, including the Chase Family Movement Disorders Center, Memory Care Center, Epilepsy, Institute of Living (outpatient and inpatient psychiatry), and Hartford Hospital (medical inpatient and inpatient rehabilitation).

Opportunities to participate in teaching activities and supervision of students at all levels of training exist. The Institute of Living has a deep commitment to research and education, as well as clinical care, and there are many opportunities to get involved in hospital-wide activities and initiatives. The Institute of Living also has a strong commitment to multi-disciplinary collaboration and continuing education, including weekly psychiatry Grand Rounds and numerous other educational opportunities, including departmental seminars for staff neuropsychologists and trainees.
