Job Opening at the Child Mind Institute

Ever wish that you could join your love of all things PCIT and New York City?  Look no further than this job ad for a PhD-level Clinician (see link below)

I had the opportunity to visit the Child Mind Institute last spring. It is an amazing facility and the people who work there are pretty darn nice, too! I have more photos to share from my visit there (so stay tuned).  You really should apply for this job!!

ADHD DBD Clinician Job Description

New, improved CDI cleanerupper

Thanks to Dr. Steve Kurtz from the Child Mind Institute for the following blog contribution:

Just when you hit the end of those messy CDI sessions when you regret that we are the ones who actually do the cleaning up  comes the new, improved “official” PCIT International CDI Cleaner-Upper – which doubles as a portable time-out area for public behaviors:) at 1/10 the size of your standard rug remnant

The most awesome research review…ever!

Were you able to go to the PCIT Convention in Gainesville, Florida?  We had a great time and I still need photos from the week so if you have them, please send them to me at brestev@auburn.edu.  I’d love to post lots of convention photos here.  Like this one:

Who could forget Melanie Nelson’s DPICS Extravaganza?!?!

Also, I just wanted to remind all of you that the Research Committee has put together a comprehensive Research Review that lists PCIT articles.  I think this could be really helpful for writing training grants or student papers.  Enjoy!
