Regular Full-Time Tualatin Clinic Overview The Legacy mission of
making life better for others includes the whole person. Our
psychologist residents focus on the mental, emotional and

primary reason for seeking medical attention; for others, a
contributing factor has weakened their psychological state. No
matter the circumstances, their cases must be viewed with
professionalism and compassion. Are you committed to improving the
psychological well-being of patients and giving them the best
possible chance for strong mental health? If so, we invite you to
consider joining the Legacy community. A psychologist resident is a

competent working in the interdisciplinary context of team-based
care, providing consultation to medical providers and providing
