Position Summary:

The University of North Carolina Suicide Prevention Institute (SPI) is seeking an excellent post-doctoral clinical or counseling psychologist to conduct research and clinical care in efforts to counter the mental health and suicide epidemics impacting North Carolina. The SPI is a team science endeavor that is now working to implement novel preventive efforts across the lifespan, across the range of suicidal behaviors (from far upstream to downstream), and across the segments of the NC populace (with efforts focused on empirically defined risk groups). All of our work is embedded in empiricism and there are multiple data science efforts underway at UNC, in NC, and in Sweden. The position will be an approximate mix of 60% clinical work and 40% research. The precise details are negotiable provided that they advance the mission of the SPI and the applicants career goal. There are currently 5 established clinical rotations in inpatient, outpatient, and virtual settings that post-doctoral fellows rotate through. We are also continually looking for novel avenues in our work (e.g., in our partnership with Carolina Across 100), and encourage post-doctoral fellows to engage with us in identifying opportunities that align with their clinical and career. Additionally, members of the SPI are productive researchers with numerous national and foundational grants. The postdoctoral fellow will be encouraged to partner with a research mentor to advance the knowledge and communication of suicide prevention and intervention while working to establish and build their research career.

The ideal candidate will have a strong clinical background, particularly in treating adults, teens, and/or children with interventions with strong empirical support. Experience in randomized clinical trials or standardized interventions are important. In addition, the candidate needs an excellent grasp of quantitative analysis in order to understand suicidal phenomena, epidemiological data, and to track outcomes. Applications from candidates with training in the diagnosis and treatment of behavioral health/mental health conditions in children and adolescents are certainly within scope for these positions.

Members of the SPI team have strong track records of advancing postdocs to faculty positions via mentoring and NIH career development awards (1-3 per year over the past 2 decades).

Minimum Education and Experience Requirements:

Completion of a PhD or PsyD in clinical or counseling psychology and completion of (or currently completing) a clinical internship in an APA accredited program

Experience in quantitative (statistical, mathematical, computational) research with large data sets

Required Qualifications, Competencies, and Experience:

Good working knowledge of major psychiatric disorders, evidence-based therapeutics, and suicidal phenomenology

Ability to work effectively in a team environment.

Preferred Qualifications, Competencies, and Experience:

Demonstrated attention to detail and analytical skills.

Strong initiative and ability to take ownership of assigned tasks and projects.

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.

Excellent presentation skills.
