Cleveland Clinics Neurological Institute announces a search for a clinical neuropsychologist with specialization in adult neuropsychology to join our dynamic and growing Neuropsychology section in Northern Ohio. The successful candidate will join the staff of the Neuropsychology Section at the Cleveland Clinic, which currently consists of 17 neuropsychologists, 2 postdoctoral residents, practicum students, and 15 psychometrists.
This is a clinical position that will serve the needs of patients at Cleveland Clinic Akron General Hospital in Akron, OH (about 40 miles south of Cleveland). The neuropsychologist will provide neuropsychological services for adult patients with a broad range of issues, including neurologic conditions (brain tumor, stroke, dementia, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, concussion, and others), mood and anxiety disorders, and other cognitive concerns. There may also be an opportunity for sub-specialization in traumatic brain injury for candidates with experience in this population. The clinical practice model is based on neuropsychologist interview and interpretation, supported by psychometrist-administered testing. While the position is geared primarily toward neuropsychological assessment, opportunities for cognitive rehabilitation and psychotherapy may also be available. The successful applicant will be eligible for appointment to the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine at a level commensurate with experience. In addition to clinical and educational roles, collaborative research activities may be developed based on applicant interest.
Applicants must have completed a doctoral degree from an APA- or CPA-accredited psychology program, an internship with experience in neuropsychology, and a postdoctoral fellowship with specialization in neuropsychology. Eligibility for licensure in Ohio is essential. Eligibility for or certification by the American Board of Professional Psychology in Clinical Neuropsychology is strongly preferred.
As the largest employer in Northeast Ohio, with over 80,000 caregivers worldwide, the Cleveland Clinic is able to offer outstanding benefits and support for professional development. There is a constant focus on innovation and leadership in healthcare, and the Neurological Institute works closely with the Innovations group at Cleveland Clinic to facilitate the development of new tools and techniques.
Interested parties please submit a letter of interest and an up-to-date CV.
