The Project of the Quad Cities • Moline, IL

7d • $53,587 • Hybrid

About The Position

As a Behavioral Health Clinician, you'll provide therapy that meets people where they are. You'll carry a caseload of individual clients, facilitate groups, and build treatment plans with your clients rather than for them. You'll work alongside our medical providers, navigators, and harm reduction staff, so the people you serve get care that holds together. We're open to clinicians at different stages of licensure. Whether you're provisionally licensed and working toward full licensure, or already fully licensed, we want to hear from you.

Requirements

• Master's degree in social work, counseling, or clinical psychology.
• Hold, or be actively working toward, clinical licensure in Illinois or Iowa.
• Fully licensed: LCSW, LCPC, or licensed clinical psychologist; or Provisionally or associate licensed, working toward full clinical licensure: in Illinois, an LSW or LPC; in Iowa, an LMSW or associate level LMHC.
• Experience providing behavioral health services under supervision, including practicum or internship.

Nice To Haves

• Two or more years in a community based organization or private practice is a plus, not a requirement.
• Professional or lived experience with: LGBTQ+ communities, individuals experiencing chronic disease or traumatic diagnosis, people living with HIV, historically oppressed/marginalized groups, substance, alcohol and drug abuse.

Responsibilities

• See clients.
• Provide individual therapy using the modalities you know well, including CBT, DBT, and mindfulness based approaches.
• Facilitate groups on coping skills, stress management, and relationships, and create a space where people feel safe showing up.
• Assess and plan. Conduct thorough mental health assessments and build personalized, evidence based treatment plans. Revisit and adjust them as your clients grow.
• Connect the dots. Coordinate care with medical providers, social services, and community partners. Refer out when someone needs more than therapy, whether that's a psychiatric evaluation or substance use treatment.
• Document well. Keep accurate, timely notes that keep care coordinated and meet our policies and legal requirements.
• Be part of the team. Work closely with other behavioral health clinicians, medical providers, and support staff to make sure clients are getting coordinated, whole-person care. Join in on team meetings, case consultations, and shared problem-solving.
• Grow the practice. Support masters level interns, share your expertise with the team, and stay sharp through ongoing training and supervision. We hold to the American Counseling Association Code of Ethics.
