Training Experiences:
The fellow will provide outpatient clinical services at the University of Minnesota Clinics and Surgery Center and via telehealth that will include diagnostic evaluations for patients with medical conditions, preoperative psychological evaluations, and psychotherapy for a range of medical and mental health conditions . Additionally, the fellow will provide care on the inpatient Health Psychology Consultation- Liaison Service at the University of Minnesota Medical Center (UMMC). The projected clinical care ratio will be an 80 outpatient/20 inpatient split.

The fellowâ™s clinical time will be predominately outpatient with inpatient consultation. Clinical time also includes individual supervision, multidisciplinary medical team meetings, consultation, grand grounds, didactic seminars, case conferences, chart reviews, and more.

Opportunities for presenting psychoeducational seminars for patients in various multidisciplinary clinics and providers arise and are encouraged.
We aim to prepare psychologists for careers in clinical health psychology, including work in academic health centers, by providing supervised clinical experiences as well as opportunities for research and education. The fellow will receive supervision from our faculty of health psychologist supervisors sufficient for licensure. The fellowship will also provide a strong basis for pursuing board certification in clinical health psychology upon completion of the program.
