This full-time remote role allows you to leverage your expertise to provide compassionate guidance and therapy to clients through virtual sessions. Your contributions will play a significant role in promoting mental well-being and supporting clients in their pursuit of personal growth.

About the Organization\n

At Bright Horizon Family and Youth Mental Clinic, we are committed to delivering innovative telehealth solutions that make mental health care accessible to all individuals. Specializing in family and youth mental health, we focus on facilitating a supportive environment where clients can thrive. We understand the complexities of mental health and strive to provide exceptional care through a collaborative network of professionals dedicated to continuous improvement.

Work Environment\n

This position is entirely remote, allowing you the flexibility to manage your time while working in a supportive and professionally enriching environment. As a member of our community health clinic, you will be equipped with the latest technology and tools to deliver therapy effectively. You will engage with clients through established virtual platforms, enhancing your ability to provide care from the comfort of your own environment.

Key Responsibilities\n

\n
• Conduct individual telehealth counseling sessions lasting approximately 30 minutes specifically designed to address the unique needs of each client.

Qualifications\n

\n
• A Master’s degree in Psychology, Social Work, Mental Health Counseling, Marriage and Family Therapy, or a related field from an accredited institution is required.

\n
• Demonstrated proficiency in remote communication tools, such as Zoom and Skype, is crucial.

Preferred Experience\n

\n
• Familiarity with electronic medical record (EMR) systems or telehealth platforms is advantageous, although not required.
\n
• Experience with motivational interviewing techniques can enhance your interactions with clients.
\n
• A background in working with diverse populations and understanding the cultural implications of mental health care is preferred.

The compensation for the position ranges from USD 52,000 to 70,000 annually, commensurate with experience and workload. In addition to competitive salary, Bright Horizon offers a comprehensive benefits package, which includes medical, dental, and vision coverage.
