Behavioral Health Care Manager - Lexington, NC
About The Position
Every day, patients walk through our doors carrying more than physical health concerns. Many are struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, grief, stress, or other challenges that affect their overall well-being. Too often, behavioral health needs go untreated because access to care is limited. At High Rock Internal Medicine, we believe mental health is healthcare. That's why we're looking for a compassionate Behavioral Health Care Manager to help bridge the gap between physical and behavioral health services. In this role, you'll become a trusted partner for patients who need support navigating life's challenges while improving their health outcomes. Working within the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM), you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in patients' lives by providing evidence-based interventions, coordinating care with medical providers and psychiatric consultants, and helping patients achieve healthier, more fulfilling lives. This is more than a behavioral health position—it's an opportunity to be part of a team that recognizes the powerful connection between mind and body and is committed to caring for the whole person.
