• Provide evidence-based interventions to promote positive health behaviors for overall health, address immediate needs related to psychological health, assess safety, and screen for behavioral health disorders.
• Give clear and concise feedback to providers, describe action plans, and establish plans for follow-up.
• Facilitate integrated patient care by working collaboratively with medical teams, providing teams with education about identification and treatment of behavioral health concerns, supporting referrals to specialty mental health as needed, and promoting positive working relationships between medical partners and Burrell Behavioral Health.
• Applicants should have an interest in and/or experience with brief interventions, team-based care, a wide variety of psychiatric, substance abuse and behavioral medicine problems, and diverse populations.

Qualifications:

• Must possess at least a Master's degree in a Human Services field.
• Must be licensed in Missouri as a Psychologist (PhD/PsyD/LP), Professional Counselor (LPC), or a Clinical Social Worker (LCSW).
