Description

Graduated! Now what?

Graduating your doctoral program is an exciting time filled with mixed hope and uncertainty. The idealism and zeal for learning is met with the complexity of the clinical landscape and licensing requirements. You’re ‘thrown from the nest’ of your graduate program, and while you’re prepared for what’s next, you’re often left to cobble together work experiences and supervision that count for licensure.

The worst case scenario is finding yourself in a role where it’s all about work– where the first thing that goes out the window is your learning. This is why our fellowship exists.

Everything in One Spot

What if you could find a job that included the required collaboration but also psychotherapy training? A role in an interprofessional clinic where you could learn from other professions, not just your own? A role that isn’t just a job but part of a training program where you could be part of a learning cohort with other folks at your same licensure stage?

What if that role was salaried, with a steady, predictable paycheck, not variable gig work? A position where you didn’t have to worry about having enough of the right type of clients and had the autonomy to choose your caseload. What if there was a position that was about your learning, not just churning out billable hours?

The Clinic

Lorenz is on a mission to heal the world one relationship at a time– To be the best clinic in Minnesota, not the biggest. We’ve fast become a regional leader in clinical services and training, our novel approach to clinician development often emulated by other practices. The clinic was the first Family Psychology specialty clinic in the North and was the first clinic in Minnesota to develop organized Post-Master’s Fellowships.

It is recognized by many as one of the best post-degree training programs in Minnesota for clinicians looking to employ systemic, relational therapies. Compared to other large clinics regionally, Lorenz has the highest standards and ideals for clinicians and is the most selective in its hiring.

Our people have diverse backgrounds and experiences. We welcome an ever-changing, increasingly diverse group of applicants. Clinicians and trainees most often want to be here more than anywhere else because of how inspiring our high ideals are. Although training isn’t all we do, the training center is the font of vitality to the institution  are growing, evolving, and changing on a daily basis.

We think big but act small, locally. Thirty years from now, Lorenz Clinic aspires to become one of the leading family institutes in the country, having gone from a microscopic mom and pop shop at someone’s dining room table to one of the premier family institutes in the world. The people that pass through Lorenz have been the movers and shakers in the field, leaders that have infuses systems thinking and relational, reflective practice into the mental health field for generations to come.

We hope that our contributions to the specialty will be deep and lasting. Our hope is that people will always take great pride in being part of an organization that, for decades, has served a progressive leader in strengthening and healing relationships of all kinds. Through an integrated approach that involves research, training, and the service of others through therapy, Lorenz will deliver superior results and distinctive impact with lasting endurance for the children, adults, families, and couples of Minnesota.

What You’ll Learn

Lorenz Clinic’s interprofessional training program was founded on the values and competencies of professional psychology as well as a systemic epistemology. The clinic seeks to develop effective interventionists judged by their ability to create change. Graduates leave with a deep professional network and the ability to work both independently and on interdisciplinary treatment teams. The fellowship provides invaluable client hours needed for licensure while ensuring the pre-licensure period is focused on professional development, not just working.

The signature pedagogy of the interdisciplinary mental health profession is clinical supervision. In contrast to graduate…
