As a remote worker based in Stockton, California, you will have the flexibility to impact lives from your home while navigating complex social issues effectively.

Helpline Counseling Center prides itself on being a trusted community resource that provides comprehensive social services and counseling for individuals and families in need. Our mission is to enhance the quality of life for our clients by facilitating access to mental health resources and support. We prioritize a holistic approach to care, which includes collaborating with medical professionals, community leaders, and other agencies to ensure our services are integrated and effective.

This position is fully remote, allowing you to create a conducive workspace from home while maintaining a connection with clients through telephonic and digital communication.

• Maintain accurate documentation of client interactions, assessments, and progress to ensure compliance and continuity of care.
• Attend case conferences and collaborate effectively with other professionals, providing expert testimony as needed in legal proceedings.
• Actively refer clients to community resources (such as support groups and rehabilitation services) to facilitate their recovery and reintegration.

Your role will encompass working with a diverse population that includes children, families, and individuals facing significant life challenges, particularly those affected by trauma. You will engage with clients who are navigating difficult transitions, including end-of-life care, requiring both empathy and professionalism to foster a supportive environment. Understanding their unique backgrounds and challenges is critical in delivering culturally competent care.

• A Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW) from an accredited institution is required.
• Current state licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) is mandatory.
• Demonstrated clinical experience in providing social work and counseling services to diverse populations.
• Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills to effectively engage and represent clients.
• Demonstrated cultural competence and a commitment to ethical practice.
• An empathetic and client-centered approach to care, with a strong desire to promote client welfare.

• Experience working in hospice or palliative care settings is highly desirable.
• Familiarity with telehealth systems and electronic health record management is a plus.
• Previous experience in crisis intervention settings will enhance your capability to respond to urgent client needs.

Helpline Counseling Center offers a competitive annual salary ranging from $75,000 to $90,000, commensurate with experience and qualifications. In addition to a competitive salary, we provide a robust benefits package that includes:
