Chicago Psychotherapy (private practice located in Lincoln Park) is currently accepting applications for post-Master’s Fellowship positions (Child/Adolescent Track and Adult Track) for 2022-2024.

At Chicago Psychotherapy, we believe in seeing clients for their strengths, understanding individuals in context, and working collaboratively with clients and their families in meeting treatment goals. We use gold-standard, evidence-based, and culturally responsive practices to support our clients, with an emphasis on individually tailored applications of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE), and Family Systems Therapy (FST). We have expertise in the treatment of Anxiety Disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders, Mood Disorders, tics, pediatric emotion dysregulation, ADHD, Trauma, and adjustment-related concerns across the lifespan.

The fellows will carry a caseload of approximately twenty weekly clients, including children/teens ages 5-18, their parents, and/or adults. Within their weekly caseload, the Child/Adolescent fellow will have the opportunity to serve as a treatment provider on a large national study of the effectiveness of exposure-based CBT in treating pediatric Anxiety Disorders. This position will include weekly supervision by an LCPC, ongoing training in evidence-based practices, opportunities to give community-based mental health presentations/trainings, and support for the development of clinical expertise in evidence-based treatment of Anxiety Disorders. Fellows will receive the clinical hours and supervision required to qualify for IL-based independent licensure as an LCPC/LCSW.
