William James College is committed to an active, intentional, and ongoing engagement with diversity—in people, in the curriculum, in the co-curriculum, and in the college’s intellectual, social, cultural, and geographical communities. William James College endorses a framework of inclusive excellence, which recognizes that institutional excellence comes from fully engaging with diversity in all aspects of institutional activities.
Responsibilities: Core faculty members are involved in teaching, advising, and research supervision. Additionally, there is the expectation of committee work and scholarly productivity. We are seeking applicants with interest, expertise, and/or experience in child/adolescent psychology to join our Children and Families of Adversity and Resilience (CFAR) concentration. A strong commitment to, and experience in, addressing mental health disparities and addressing the needs of unserved or underserved children/adolescents and their families is highly preferred. The successful candidate may teach relevant courses (e.g., Child Psychopathology, Clinical Practice of CBTs) as well as other generalist foundational courses in the Clinical Psy.D. program. We are especially interested in applicants with experience in practice management to co-direct our Youth and Family Psychotherapy Services. We are also especially interested in applicants with experience in grants management.
Qualifications: Candidates must possess a Psy.D. or Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology or Counseling Psychology from an APA-accredited institution, completed an APA-accredited internship, have a minimum of 1-2 years of post-graduate training, have relevant teaching experience, preferably be licensed or license-eligible in Massachusetts, and maintain some involvement in clinical practice or consultation. A demonstrated record of scholarly work defined broadly (e.g., community engagement, educational leadership, innovation, investigation and research) is preferred. Successful candidates will also have a demonstrated commitment to promoting diversity, inclusion, and multicultural competence in an educational and work environment and must be willing to contribute to the College’s strategic plan of inclusion. The department welcomes applications from individuals who may have had nontraditional career paths, or who may have taken time off for family reasons, or who have achieved excellence in careers outside of academia.
