The Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine is seeking a full-

time physician faculty member in the Clinician Educator Line to work part-time on the inpatient pediatric

consultation-liaison service at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital (LPCH) and part-time in the outpatient Medical

Coping and Wellness Program in the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. The position will be based at

the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. Rank will be commensurate with experience and expertise.

The chosen candidate will serve as an attending psychiatrist and provide clinical care in the multidisciplinary

inpatient pediatric consultation-liaison service. LPCH is a tertiary care academic pediatric hospital and treats a

diverse and interesting population of pediatric and adult patients and their parents. There are strong collaborations

between solid organ transplant services and with the Division of Pediatric Neurology where we work

collaboratively in the differential diagnosis of patients with Somatic Symptoms and Related Disorders. The

hospital also has a pediatric and cardiovascular intensive care unit which provides a large number of referrals for

evaluation of pediatric delirium and catatonia. Duties on the service will include the supervision of adolescent

psychiatry fellows, psychology interns, and Stanford medical students.

The candidate’s time can involve work in the outpatient Medical Coping and Wellness Program (MCWP) in the

Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. MCWP is an important and growing outpatient program on the

interface between the inpatient child consultation-liaison service and the child psychiatry clinics. Patients are those

with comorbid psychiatric and physical illness who require psychiatric evaluation, psychiatric medication

management, and individual and family therapy. Responsibilities will include providing supervision and didactics

to psychology graduate students, post docs, and child psychiatry fellows. Ample clinical research and mentorship

opportunities are also available including with the pediatric solid organ transplant program at Stanford.

Applicants should have experience in evaluating and treating both children and adolescents with a broad spectrum

of presenting problems. Expertise in pediatric consultation liaison psychiatry is preferred. The successful

candidate will be offered opportunities for advanced training in pediatric hypnosis to supplement their clinical

work. We are currently accepting applications and review will continue on a rolling basis until the position is

filled.
