Call for Fellowship Applications ? Division 29?- Psychotherapy

The Division of Psychotherapy is now accepting applications from individuals who would like to nominate themselves or recommend a deserving colleague for Fellow status with the Division of Psychotherapy.? Fellow status in APA is awarded to psychologists in recognition of outstanding contributions to psychology.? Division 29 is eager to honor those members of our division who have distinguished themselves by exceptional contributions to psychotherapy in a variety of ways such as through research, practice, and teaching.?

The minimum standards for Fellowship under APA Bylaws are:

  1. The receipt of a doctoral degree ???? based in part upon a psychological dissertation, or from a program ???? primarily psychological in nature;
  2. Prior membership as an APA Member ???? for at least one year and a Member of the division through which the ???? nomination is made;
  3. Active engagement at the time of ???? nomination in the advancement of psychology in any of its aspects;
  4. Five years of acceptable ???? professional experience subsequent to the granting of the doctoral degree;
  5. Evidence of unusual and ???? outstanding contribution or performance in the field of psychology; and
  6. Nomination by one of the divisions ???? which member status is held.

There are two paths to fellowship.? For those who are not currently Fellows of APA, you must apply for Initial Fellowship through the Division, which then sends applications for approval to the APA Membership Committee and to the APA Council of Representatives.? The following are the requirements for initial Fellow applicants:

  1. Completion of the Uniform Fellow Blank;
  2. A detailed curriculum vitae;
  3. A self-nominating letter (which should also be sent to your endorsers);
  4. Three (or more) letters of endorsement of your work by APA Fellows (at least two must be Division 29 Fellows) who can attest to the fact that your ?recognition? has been beyond the local level of psychology;
  5. A cover letter, together with your CV and self-nominating letter, to each endorser.

Division 29 members who have already attained Fellow status through another division may pursue a direct application for Division 29 Fellow by sending a curriculum vitae and a letter to the Division 29 Fellows Committee, indicating specifically how you meet the Division 29 criteria for Fellowship.???

APA is instituting an on-line, all electronic Fellows Nomination and Submission process this year. The new system will allow the applicant, the endorsers and the Fellow Chairs to submit all of their materials online. ?Please visit APA?s website for more information: ??http://apa.org/membership/fellows/

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION:? The deadline for submission to be considered for 2013 is December 15, 2012.?

(a) a cover letter, (b) the Uniform Fellow Application, (b) a self-nominating letter, (c) three (or more) letters of endorsement from current APA Fellows (at least two Division 29 Fellows), and (d) an updated CV.?

Current Fellows of APA who want to become a Fellow of Division 29 need only send a letter attesting to their qualifications with a current CV.?
