St. Jude is a tertiary care hospital focused on
treatment of catastrophic illnesses of childhood including cancer, sickle cell disease and other hematologic disorders, HIV and other
infectious diseases, endocrinology, and neurological disorders. Prior experience with these populations is desirable but not required. Also
desirable are interests and expertise in cross-cutting issues of pediatric illness such as adherence, health behaviors, and early childhood
development.

and research training programs at the post-doctoral fellowship, doctoral internship, and graduate student practicum levels. The Department
also maintains comprehensive clinical-research and data science resources. The Psychology Clinic is staffed by pediatric psychologists and
neuropsychologists and masters-level examiners. A full range of consultation, intervention and assessment services are provided to St. Jude
patients in the outpatient and inpatient settings. Psychology is a highly valued discipline within interdisciplinary care teams and is
well-integrated into medical care. Learn more about the Department at https://www.stjude.org/research/departments/psychology.html.
Candidates must have a PhD or PsyD in Clinical,
Counseling, or School Psychology from an APA-approved program with an APA- or CPA-approved doctoral internship. Completion of a

Health Service Provider designation in the State of Tennessee. Salary and benefit packages are highly competitive and commensurate with
experience. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
