Pediatric Neuropsychology Postdoctoral FellowshipPediatric Neuropsychology Post Doctoral Fellowship
Job Title: Pediatric Neuropsychology Post Doctoral Fellowship
Location: On-site, Boston
Position Type: Full-Time
Summary of position:
The Baker Center for Children and Families (also known as Judge Baker Children's Center), promotes the best possible mental health of children and families through the integration of research, intervention, training, and policy.
The Baker Center for Children and Families (previously Judge Baker Children's Center), a Harvard Medical School Affiliate, is pleased to announce openings for a Pediatric Neuropsychology Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Center for Effective Therapy (CET). CET at The Baker Center provides mental health assessments and focused short-term treatments for approximately 1,000 children and adolescents ages 2-22 and their families annually and recently opened a neuropsychology department in 2025. CET promotes the best possible mental health of children by using scientifically proven treatments in the assessment and treatment of children and families of diverse communities. Therapists utilize evidence-based treatments for some of the most common presenting problems, including anxiety, depression, traumatic stress, and disruptive behavior. CET also trains mental health professionals in our treatment models to increase the quality of care throughout our communities. We expand public awareness and inform public policy through the use of research, data, and advocacy with local child and adolescent organizations.
The primary population served by the Center is children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Dyslexia/Learning Disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Tourette Syndrome) and acquired neurological conditions of childhood. The neuropsychology outpatient program receives referrals from pediatric neurologists, pediatricians, schools, and mental health providers, with questions of differential diagnosis and treatment planning for a wide range of patients, including those with epilepsy, metabolic disorders, and other developmental, psychiatric, or medical issues. A major focus of the evaluation process is the follow-up and feedback appointment, at which time parents are provided with both written and oral summaries of the examination, along with detailed recommendations. Occasionally, opportunities are available to participate in school IEP meetings.
The fellowship is a two-year, full-time position (hybrid), and conforms to the guidelines established to ABCN and Houston Conference/APA Division 40 training requirements. The anticipated start date is the end of July or August 2026, although an alternative start date may be negotiated on an individual basis.
