[David Tolin]

Colleagues, please forgive the cross posting. I'm delighted to send this announcement of a new CBT internship track at the Institute of Living, and would appreciate your forwarding it to any interested students.

 

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy Internship Track at the Institute of Living

 

The Institute of Living/Hartford Hospital invites applications for a one-year predoctoral internship beginning in September 2013. This internship, featuring a year-long part-time rotation at the Anxiety Disorders Center/Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ADC/CCBT; David F. Tolin, Ph.D., director) is part of the APA-accredited predoctoral internship program at the Institute of Living. The CBT track consists of general training in Clinical Psychology with a focus on cognitive-behavioral therapy and evidence-based practice. Accordingly, training will focus on a practical integration of psychological science and practice.

 

In addition to the work at the ADC/CCBT, the CBT internship track is comprised of additional four-month long rotations and electives, which may include adult or adolescent inpatient services, young adult services, health psychology, schizophrenia rehabilitation, clinical neuropsychology, and clinical health psychology.  The CBT intern will have the opportunity to participate in collaborative clinical research with IOL faculty members.
