Description
Shoreline Psychological Services is dedicated to providing exceptional diagnostic and evaluative psychological services to a broad range of clients. We specialize in providing comprehensive psychological and neuropsychological assessments. Our primary age range of clients is from age 16 through the elder population. However, some work with children may be available if you have an interest in psychological assessment of this population.
We are seeking a psychologist who is dedicated and eager to learn. This position is an opportunity for either a psychologist in the early stages of their career or a recent graduate seeking post-doctoral residency and supervision in psychology to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in psychological assessment and a keen interest in further developing their diagnostic skills in an outpatient setting. This position offers a unique opportunity for professional growth and development under the mentorship of experienced psychologists.
Shoreline’s main office is located in St. Petersburg, FL. Our psychologists often travel within the region to one of our satellite offices or testing sites (such as local high schools). No in-home evaluations are conducted at any time. Typical travel times range from zero (local St. Petersburg office) to 1.5 hours, and estimated travel time is planned into the day’s schedule. In other words, if you are scheduled an hour away from St. Petersburg, the evaluation would typically start no earlier than 9:00 a.m., and allow for you to be back in the St. Petersburg area by 5:00 p.m. You will have the opportunity to evaluate individuals in a variety of locales, from metropolitan to rural, in our offices.
Benefits:
- Salaried position
- Professional development opportunities, including supervision and continuing education.
- Supportive and collaborative work environment.
- Emphasis on work-life balance. This is why we typically offer our positions as salaried (rather than percentage) and provide psychometrists to assist in testing.
- Opportunities for career advancement within the organization.
- Retirement plan after one year employment
Key Responsibilities:
- Conduct comprehensive psychological assessments for adolescents, adults, and older adults.
- Administer, score, and interpret a wide range of psychological tests and measures.
- Once you become familiar with our model for assessment and testing and are skilled in administering and interpreting the measures necessary, you will often be scheduled to work with one of our staff psychometrists who will assist you in the testing and scoring process.
