Familiarity with digital therapy platforms, standardized assessment tools, and clinical record systems is typically required. Outstanding interpersonal skills, emotional resilience, and the ability to build therapeutic rapport are essential soft skills. These competencies ensure effective treatment delivery, patient engagement, and successful outcomes in demanding mental health settings.
