Join our growing Psychological Services team as a Program Therapist II. We have added two newly created opportunities for Master's level clinicians as a part of our continuum of care for mental health services. Positions are hybrid, with one primarily based in St. Paul, and one primarily based in Minneapolis. Work schedule includes one evening shift (12 PM - 8 PM), and every other Saturday; both of which are virtual.
Half of your time will be dedicated toward a "bridging" clinic where you will see patients for brief therapy as a bridge once they have stepped down from our Partial Hospital Program PHP or Inpatient treatment programs, while waiting for an established therapist.
The other half will be providing longer term outpatient therapy with referrals from our Integrated Behavioral Health (IBH) team, as well as from the PHP or Inpatient programs. This role requires frequent collaboration with the IBH providers and with Inpatient and PHP providers.
