What are some common challenges faced during a remote behavioral health internship, and how can interns overcome them?

Remote behavioral health interns often encounter challenges such as limited face-to-face interaction with clients and supervisors, navigating privacy and confidentiality in a virtual setting, and feeling isolated from the broader team. To overcome these hurdles, interns should proactively communicate with their supervisors, seek regular feedback, and participate in virtual team meetings or peer support groups. Additionally, setting up a dedicated, private workspace and familiarizing themselves with telehealth platforms will help interns maintain professionalism and adhere to ethical standards.

What is a remote behavioral health internship?

A remote behavioral health internship is a training opportunity where students or recent graduates gain practical experience in behavioral health fields, such as psychology, counseling, or social work, by working online rather than at a physical location. Interns may assist with virtual therapy sessions, conduct research, complete administrative tasks, or participate in online training and supervision. This format allows interns to develop professional skills and knowledge from anywhere, making it accessible for people who cannot relocate or commute. Remote internships often use secure digital platforms to ensure client confidentiality and effective communication with supervisors and clients.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Behavioral Health Intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Behavioral Health Intern, you typically need foundational knowledge in psychology or social work, often supported by enrollment in a relevant degree program. Familiarity with telehealth platforms, secure communication systems, and basic documentation tools like EHRs is important for remote service delivery. Strong communication, active listening, and self-motivation are crucial soft skills for building rapport and managing tasks independently. These abilities ensure effective client support, ethical practice, and adaptability in a virtual behavioral health environment.

Job description

About Colla Health
We help people with cancer improve their quality of life by providing behavioral healthcare to the 17 million cancer patients in the US as an extension of their medical treatment.
One out of every three cancer patients has a diagnosed mental health condition but only 25% of them receive treatment for their mental health challenges, exacerbating quality of life, worsening health outcomes, and increasing their total cost of care to the system. We are on a mission to provide relevant, accessible behavioral health at the point of care that is embedded within a patient's oncology practice. We are backed by a premier venture capital firm and are building a world-class team of clinicians, technologists, and healthcare operations builders passionate about helping cancer patients improve their quality of life.
We have built a behavioral health services and technology company to support patients' mental health alongside their physical health treatment plans. Our first offering deploys virtual mental health services using Collaborative Care, an evidence-based behavioral health care model. We will scale this virtual care model using technology, and build the foundations to drive outcomes focused on value-based care.
About The Role
Our Behavioral Health Care Managers are the consistent, trusted advocates at the very center of our care model. By providing targeted behavioral health support that integrates with the patient's physical healthcare, they serve as the vital bridge that unifies the entire care team-from primary care provider to psychiatric consultant-around a single, compassionate plan. Specifically, the Associate BHCM is our entry-level behavioral health clinician role which delivers care to patients with cancer through the Collaborative Care Model. With guidance and support from senior-level teammates, they improve the health of patients and develop additional skills and clinical expertise.
This is a fully remote opportunity supporting one or more of our partner practices, working Monday-Friday.
Projected Start Date: August
Please Note: This role is part of our evergreen hiring strategy, where we proactively identify and engage talent for ongoing and anticipated needs across our team. We are continuously building a pipeline of qualified candidates for current and future opportunities.
Applicants will be considered for both immediate and future openings that align with their experience. Candidates may be contacted as opportunities arise, and timelines for next steps may vary based on business needs. We appreciate your patience and look forward to connecting.
