About The Position

Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE) is seeking a Clinical Coordinator-Counseling Services (AP26-093) to provide advanced clinical leadership and direct mental health services within Counseling Services and the integrated Cougar Care model. This role supports same-day access, crisis response, triage, management of high-acuity and complex cases, continuity of care, and coordination across services.

This role aligns with professional standards and the Mental Health Early Action on Campus Act (110 ILCS 58).
