Ideally, we seek a psychologist specializing in pain management to provide expert services to our patients experiencing chronic pain and potentially other comorbid medical and/or psychological disorders.

The successful candidate will be highly skilled in evidence-based psychotherapeutic interventions for treating chronic pain. While this position is clinical, additional expectations include expert teaching, and psychotherapy supervision for psychiatry and psychology trainees. Moreover, stimulating opportunities for research collaboration and mentorship exist both within the Department and the larger institution.
