Youth and Family Therapist - Hattiesburg, United States - CHOICES Inc
Description
The System of Care Therapist is responsible for providing evidence-based therapy services to youth that have been diagnosed with an SED and would benefit from mental health counseling and their families. Services are primarily community-based, and many participating youths are involved in multiple child-serving systems (e.g., child welfare, special education and/or juvenile justice) and/or may be at risk of out of home placement. The Therapist facilitates regular therapy sessions and monitors client progress from the point of intake/referral, through treatment, to discharge and aftercare. For youth that are enrolled in Wraparound Care Coordination, the therapist also works with the Wraparound Team, as facilitated by the Care Coordinator, to develop and implement the Individualized Service Plan for each identified client/family. The SOC Therapist enhances resources available to each family through offering options for additional services, education, and support. The Therapist coordinates the flow of clinical information across agencies and providers while protecting the confidentiality of individuals served. The incumbent will support and uphold a commitment to racial and ethnic equity and antiracism.
