About this position
The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center is recruiting a clinical postdoctoral fellow in Behavioral Sleep Medicine within the Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Health in Columbus, Ohio.
The fellowship is built around outpatient care for patients with insomnia, circadian rhythm disorders, hypersomnia, and parasomnias, and includes work related to positive airway pressure desensitization/adherence and sedative hypnotic medication tapering support. The training model emphasizes comprehensive sleep assessment, case conceptualization, and flexible use of evidence-based interventions for complex sleep-related and comorbid psychiatric presentations.
Fellows will join an interdisciplinary clinical environment working closely with psychiatry, psychology, and sleep medicine colleagues. The role combines direct patient care with clinical supervision, didactics, and optional mentored research, allowing the fellow to engage with ongoing departmental academic activity while contributing to the Behavioral Sleep Medicine Program.
Clinical responsibilities include psychodiagnostic assessment and evidence-based individual psychotherapy within the BSM team, plus an individualized elective rotation shaped by the fellow’s goals and supervisor availability. Possible elective clinical experiences span areas such as hypersomnolence and parasomnias, behavioral cardiology, women’s behavioral health, depression recovery, pain medicine, and trauma- and stressor-related disorders.
The fellowship also includes team meetings, departmental Grand Rounds, professional development, and up to one day of mentored research under faculty supervision. Research may involve secondary analysis of existing data or adding a component to an existing project, with opportunities varying by year.
The program is based at Outpatient Care Upper Arlington and is a one-year fixed-term appointment with an option to renew.
