    Rady Children's Hospital – San Diego has implemented an innovative, new Primary Care Mental Health Integration Program (PCMHI) through the Transforming Mental Health (TMH) initiative.

    This network of services provides accessible mental health services within the primary care medical home, and at our regional mental health specialty hubs across San Diego and Southern Riverside County.

    Our program is focused on supporting early identification, health promotion and illness prevention, in collaboration with our primary care pediatric partners.

    We have a growing team of clinicians focused on providing total child health and mental wellness.


    As part of the PCMHI team, the Integrated Health Therapist "IHT" serves as a valued provider and partner in total child well-being, based in the primary care pediatrician's office and/or at an outpatient "Hub" location.

    The IHT will conduct a brief model of mental health services, including diagnostic assessment, triage, psychotherapy, and multidisciplinary team treatment planning.

    As a generalist provider, the IHT will offer education, connection to resources, counseling, problem solving, brief therapy, and crisis intervention.

    The IHT will develop integrated care plans utilizing knowledge of mental health, age, developmental stages, and culture.

    This role works closely with physicians to provide holistic care, monitor patient progress, and achieve treatment goals to improve both mental and physical health.


    The IHT may engage in teaching opportunities including workshops or presentations for youth, families, providers, and/or community members on topics related to mental health, integrated care, and wellness.

    As TMH programming evolves, opportunities for collaboration in research projects may become available, as well as opportunities for professional advancement.

    A licensed IHT may provide supervision to pre licensed clinicians at the discretion of the Supervisor and as allowed by the academic institution and licensing boards; may also assist with administrative duties, as assigned by the Supervisor.


    JOB SUMMARY:


    As part of the MHI team , the Integrated Health Therapist (IHT) serves as a provider and partner in total child wellbeing, based in a PCP's office, at a regional outpatient Hub, or a combination of the two based on program needs.

    The IHT applies principles of social work, psychology, counseling, and other behavioral health practices to offer services such as brief therapy, psychoeducation, case management, problem solving, advocacy, and crisis intervention.


    The IHT is connected to a patient/family primarily via referrals from the patient's PCP, which is facilitated by a Warm Hand-Off from the medical provider and followed by a same day assessment and triage by the IHT to identify and address mental health needs early.

    Post-assessment, the IHT provides brief, evidence-based therapy, and coordinates referrals, where appropriate.


    The IHT comanages patient care along the PCP and acts as the main contact for and liaison between the patient's referring provider, psychiatry team, care coordination team, and other treatment team members.

    The IHT supports medical providers through ongoing consultation and provides continuous mental and behavioral health education. Patient care is provided both in person and via telehealth depending on patient preferences and scheduling availability.
