About this position
The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center’s Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Health is offering a clinical postdoctoral fellowship in Behavioral Sleep Medicine for the 2027–2028 training year, with an option to renew. The fellowship is based in the Behavioral Sleep Medicine Program in Columbus, Ohio.
Fellows provide evidence-based outpatient care for insomnia, circadian rhythm disorders, hypersomnia, and parasomnias. Training also includes positive airway pressure desensitization and adherence support, as well as assistance with sedative-hypnotic medication tapering. The program emphasizes comprehensive sleep assessment, case conceptualization, flexible implementation of behavioral interventions, and care for comorbid medical and psychiatric conditions.
Approximately 80% of the role involves clinical services. Fellows conduct psychodiagnostic assessments and provide individual psychotherapy within the Behavioral Sleep Medicine team, while also completing an elective rotation tailored to their training goals and interests. Possible rotations include central disorders of hypersomnolence and parasomnias, behavioral cardiology, women’s behavioral health, depression recovery, pain medicine, and trauma- and stressor-related disorders.
The training environment is interdisciplinary, bringing fellows into close collaboration with psychiatry, psychology, sleep medicine, other Behavioral Sleep Medicine trainees, and psychology fellows. Professional development includes team meetings, fellowship didactics, departmental Grand Rounds, staff in-services, and other educational activities.
Fellows may also participate in mentored clinical research under faculty supervision, including secondary analysis of archival data or contributions to an existing project. The department’s research and clinical-trials activity provides an additional environment for developing clinical research experience.
