This position offers an annual salary ranging from USD 90,000 to 100,000, depending on experience and qualifications.

Located in the picturesque city of Plattsburgh, New York, Productive Mind Counseling operates within a leading hospital framework. Our mission is to enhance the mental well-being of a diverse patient population by providing innovative counseling services. We pride ourselves on our collaborative team environment, where licensed mental health professionals work closely together to create individualized pathways for patient recovery and mental health improvement.

This role is entirely remote, enabling a flexible working environment while utilizing the advanced resources and support systems of our detox center. Although this position primarily functions from home, candidates must be prepared for occasional evening hours and adaptability during peak periods of patient care. You will engage actively with a multidisciplinary team, colleagues based in various departments, and through telehealth modalities.

• Conduct comprehensive assessments and mental health screenings to evaluate the unique needs of detox patients, developing and implementing tailored treatment plans based on individual circumstances.

• Engage in outreach activities that aim to promote mental health awareness and enhance community engagement with mental health resources.
• Maintain precise and confidential patient records in accordance with regulatory standards, ensuring ethical practices in all documentation and communication.

This role focuses on supporting individuals undergoing detoxification and rehabilitation. Our patient population often includes those grappling with substance use disorders, mental health challenges, and the complexity of dual-diagnosis circumstances. The counselor will cater to a diverse demographic, helping individuals navigate the sensitive, transitional period of their treatment and recovery journey.

• An active state license is required, such as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), or Doctor of Psychology (PsyD).
• A master’s or doctoral degree in Counseling, Psychology, Social Work, or a closely related discipline is mandatory.
• Demonstrated understanding of the specific mental health issues prevalent among detox patients, including trauma-informed care principles and motivational interviewing techniques.
• Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills to effectively engage with patients and facilitate collaboration with a diverse medical team.
• Keen knowledge of evidence-based therapeutic approaches suited for a detox setting, incorporating brief therapy models when necessary.
• Proven ability to excel in a fast-paced remote environment, managing a varied caseload and prioritizing effectively to meet patient needs.

• Previous experience working with addiction, substance abuse treatment facilities, or detox settings is highly preferred.
• Familiarity with telehealth platforms and remote counseling methodologies.
• Participation in community mental health initiatives and public speaking on mental health topics.

• Competitive salary ranging from USD 90,000 to 100,000 per year, commensurate with experience.
• Inclusive benefits package featuring health insurance options, retirement planning, and generous paid time off.
• Opportunities for ongoing professional development and access to continuing education resources.
• A supportive and collaborative work atmosphere, enriched by ongoing research and publication opportunities within the field.
• Access to organizational resources, such as library facilities and wellness programs aimed at promoting employee well-being.
