| Classified Description |
The State of Nevada is excited to announce the opening of positions for psychologists. Opportunities exist for positions in Winnemucca and Carson City, Nevada. These permanent full time positions are intended for licensed or license-eligible psychologists, but an opportunity may exist to underfill the positions with a post-doctoral resident (referred to as a Psychological Assistant in the State of Nevada). These positions are being offered through the State of Nevada’s Rural Services agency. Rural Services provides treatment to children, adolescents, and adults with mental illness and/or developmental disabilities. Rural Services is comprised of 13 community mental health clinics throughout Northern Nevada.
Psychologists perform three primary functions within Rural Services: direct clinical intervention, supervision/consultation, and program evaluation and development. Psychologists conduct intake evaluations, provide individual and group therapy, and conduct psychological testing. As a supervisor, psychologists provide clinical supervision for master’s degree-level clinicians as well as consultation to clinicians in other Rural Services clinics across the state. Some travel to these clinics may be required. Program evaluation and development responsibilities include tracking and interpretation of data, recommendation of service delivery modifications, and review of treatment effectiveness.
The position in Winnemucca, a town of approximately 8,500 people located 165 miles east of Reno, NV, offers the opportunity to work in a truly rural setting. Student loan repayment through the National Health Service Corps (NHSC) is available at this site. There are currently two positions available in Carson City, NV.
