| The postdoctoral fellowship offers supervision across a range of experiences in the area of substance dependency and mental health issues. Interdisciplinary opportunities are offered in the area of advanced clinical practice and the integration of research into practice.
All supervisors are licensed psychologists. Postdoctoral fellows are provided one hour of face-to-face supervision each week in addition to group supervision obtained through clinical activities (case consultation and multidisciplinary case review). Postdoctoral fellows also participate in regular staff case consultation and mental health case review on a weekly basis. Supervision is also available though consultation with other members of the multidisciplinary team as requested. Supervisors are expected to provide postdoctoral fellows with continuous feedback on their progress during weekly supervision meetings. The postdoctoral fellow and supervisor establish goals and objectives at the beginning and midterm in the fellowship. Midterm and final evaluations, both written and oral are conducted between the postdoctoral fellow and their supervisor. Evaluations are interactive, and both the postdoctoral fellow and supervisor exchange impressions and information related to the supervisory experience as well as the evaluation of the postdoctoral training program. Fellows receive supervision on clinical work, their consultative/supervisory work, clinical work, and their overall professional conduct. Fellows should expect to be assigned reading and literature reviews as part of their supervision. The training provided meets requirements for licensure as a psychologist in the state of Minnesota.
