Doctoral Student Clinicians (“Moonlighters”) 

If you are a doctoral student seeking high quality supervised therapy experience and to be paid for this work, we encourage you to reach out for potential opportunities with our clinical team!

We are actively seeking doctoral student clinicians to join our clinical team, with a strong preference for those who are able to work evenings and/or Saturdays and  in both our Wheaton and Hinsdale locations.

  • Student clinicians will be compensated at $35 per session and would be required to have at least 6 sessions/week; these sessions would be held at either our Wheaton or Hinsdale location. Some clients may also be seen via telehealth; this is dependent on ongoing insurance coverage of telehealth (and is subject to change or may not be covered by all BCBS PPO policies).

    For doctoral student clinicians who have a minimum weekly caseload of 6 clients, Heritage will provide weekly supervision from a licensed clinical psychologist at no additional cost to the student clinician.

    Some doctoral students may wish to also have this clinical experience count towards their practicum training experiences (i.e. Supplemental Practicum). If so, the student is responsible to obtain information from their doctoral program regarding their program’s specific requirements for supplemental practicum and should forward this information to Dr. Sandy Kruse for consideration and approval. If this employment experience can count for a supplemental practicum experience, this would not impact the student clinician’s ability to be compensated for this work.
