Support Our Admissions Team as a Contract Clinician

When a teen is struggling, the first conversation changes everything, and that conversation is yours. Adolescent Wellness Academy is a behavioral health program serving teens across South Florida. We’re looking for a bilingual, Spanish-speaking therapist to partner with us as a contract clinician leading virtual Connection Calls: telehealth intake assessments with adolescents ages 13–17 and their families. On each call you’ll screen for mental health and safety needs and decide whether our Partial Hospitalization (PHP) or Intensive Outpatient (IOP) program fits. Families leave the call ready for care. Our clinicians get a clear clinical picture before day one.

Compensation

Calls are scheduled within the availability window, Monday through Friday, based on your availability. You’re paid for every booked assessment, no matter how long it runs.

What You’ll Do

• Lead telehealth intake assessments with teens and their parents or caregivers
• Complete CALOCUS level-of-care screenings, crisis assessments, and suicide risk assessments
• Recognize when a teen needs crisis intervention, escalation, or a higher level of care
• Document clinical findings and coordinate admissions with the Admissions and treatment teams

What You Bring

• Active Florida license as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), or Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), or Florida Registered Intern status
• Fluent English and Spanish
• Experience as a counselor, therapist, or clinician working with adolescents in PHP, IOP, or other behavioral health settings
• Skills in crisis assessment, risk assessment, and de-escalation
• A private home office with reliable internet for HIPAA-compliant telehealth sessions
• Evening availability within our Mon–Fri, 5–8 PM Eastern window

Help teens feel heard and families feel supported from the very first conversation.
