RO-DBT Program Psychologist - Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy Program

Responsibilities

St. Louis Behavioral Medicine Institute (SLBMI) is seeking Licensed Psychologists with expertise and a passion in the area of Radically Open (RO) Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) (RO-DBT)! We are committed to growth and are always looking to hire exceptional talent to join our team of dedicated healthcare professionals.

Our clinicians enjoy the aspects of being an independent provider that are appealing, while having the administrative and operational support to manage everything else that you need as a provider. Our dedicated and multidisciplinary team of 70+ colleagues are willing to share their clinical expertise for case consultation, continuing education, and program development. SLBMI prides itself on being a team-oriented environment that thrives on collaboration and providing compassionate behavioral healthcare!

Shift: Monday-Friday, dayshift. Onsite work preferred.

About the Radically-Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy Program:

• Candidates to join must have some RO-DBT training or are in the process of being trained through the Blended Learning training program. Candidates who are actively pursuing the training program (but not yet began) are also eligible for consideration, under the prerequisite that they must have a pending start date for the training program. However, receiving an RO-DBT intensive training certificate is not a requirement to be considered. We will support and encourage you to pursue the intensive training as part of your practice in accordance with our Specialist-in-Training model (see below for details).
• Providers within this program provide RO-DBT adherent individual session, with opportunities to co-facilitate our adult and/or adolescent RO skill classes.
• You will be able to carry a caseload of individual patients per week, while tailoring your caseload to other interests and expertise that you have that may be outside of RO-DBT.
• Collaboration available through RO-DBT weekly consultation team meeting.
