Oak Street Health's graduate Behavioral Health Specialist Fellowship is a 12-month paid training program that provides all the necessary skills, support, and learning required to become a highly confident and competent clinician for older adults.
Oak Street Health's graduate Behavioral Health Specialist Fellowship is a 12-month paid training program in the revolutionary collaborative care model in a value-based setting, which rewards healthcare companies for the quality of their care not the quantity.
This program will include time spent building your knowledge of evidence-based interventions and psychotropic medications, earning clinical supervision hours from a licensed clinical social worker, and engaging in didactic content that aims to build on, not repeat, graduate training. All fellows will work at Oak Street for 24 months following the completion of this program, but we hope will continue to spend their careers at Oak Street improving the health of communities across the country.
What are we looking for?
Genuine passion for behavioral health (done well, the practice of short-term solution focused therapy should be fun).
A supportive attitude toward our patient population of older adults.
Embracing teamwork and the opportunity to collaborate with brilliant colleagues.
Want to be part of an innovative model focused on empirically guided population health.
Admission Requirements
Family, Adult or Adult-Gerontology Social Worker who have already graduated or will graduate from their training program.

Selection Timeline

Final decisions will be delivered as they are made.
