**Position Description**:
**Clinical Psychologist, SickKids Liver Transplant Program**

The Hospital for Sick Children is a leading tertiary pediatric centre providing medical and mental health care to the most complex children and youth and their families. A dynamic clinical, education and research environment, SickKids is committed to excellence in integrated inter-professional care. It is a centre of excellence in the delivery of cutting-edge health care to the pediatric population.

The Transplant and Regenerative Medicine Center (TRMC) provides specialist care for children under 18 years of age who have undergone solid organ transplantation and who have intestinal failure (Group of Intestinal Failure and Treatment).

We are the largest pediatric liver transplant program in Canada performing 25-40 liver transplants per year in children who come from across the country for this life-saving intervention. Our program has a successful and enduring partnership with the Live Liver Donor program at the University Health Network, which is reflected by over 50% of our transplants now done with an organ from a living donor. With long-term survival after liver transplantation in children now the rule rather than the exception, a broader holistic lens to the multi-dimensional health for the transplant survivor is now the focus of all teams providing care for these patients. The median age of the child requiring liver transplantation is under 2 years, and post-transplant care continues until age 18 years. Embedded in the Liver Transplant program is a vibrant multi-dimensionary psychosocial program which includes nurse practitioners, registered nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, dieticians, pharmacists, child life specialists, music and art therapy and consultation liaison psychiatry. Members of the psychosocial program provide exceptional clinical care and are highly engaged in scholarship, quality improvement, research and education. Our program is well-published and involved in almost every National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded consortia studies in the past decade and a half. The program has strong philanthropic support providing exceptional opportunities for innovations and program development.

The Psychologist within the SickKids Pediatric Liver Transplant program will assess, diagnose, monitor, and treat behavioral and socio-emotional problems in all pediatric transplant survivors within the Liver Transplant program (inpatients and outpatients). The role includes a focus on psychoeducational interventions and psychotherapeutic treatments to support children and families¿ adjustment to new diagnoses and post-transplant protocols, surveillance of at-risk comorbidities in a child now on life-long immunosuppression, promoting healthy behavior and compliance, enhancing coping, reducing distress, as well as caregiver mental health and coping. This could take place within a traditional individual therapeutic setting, through caregiver support or a therapeutic group setting. The psychologist will work in collaboration with the medical and psychosocial team members to meet the psychosocial needs of the child and family.

**Here's What You'll Get To Do**
- Conduct thorough consultations, screenings, and comprehensive assessments to evaluate a child¿s current psychological and social-emotional functioning.
- Provide ongoing correspondence updating intervention progress and providing relevant recommendations.
- Deliver clear and informative intervention and feedback to families and clinic teams regarding treatment goals and recommendations.
- Provide consultation services to school teams and other health, community and educational professionals, promoting collaboration and comprehensive support for the child.
- Enhance the team's ability to address the psychosocial needs of both the child and their family by complementing and expanding existing services.
- Work independently and collaboratively as a valued member of an interdiscip
