Job description

For more than 50 years Sound has been committed to providing excellent care to those we serve.  From young children to older adults, intensive outreach to insight oriented therapy, Sound has services to match the needs of our community.  With evidenced based practices and exceptionally talented team members we provide services to thousands each year at 17 outpatient sites, 4 residential facilities, nearly a dozen supported housing locations and hundreds of housing sites.  We proudly provide services in over 250 schools throughout our region.

Since 2017, Sound teams have practiced a model of care that has demonstrated efficacy for achieving recovery-based outcomes. Reaching Recovery™, developed by the Mental Health Center of Denver, is a measurement-based clinical care model that promotes consumer engagement and recovery.  This model ensures the right services at the right time and at the right intensity to match their recovery progression and inspire hope along their journey. This model also allows clinical team members to match their skills with clients needing varying levels of targeted intervention. This promotes greater satisfaction for our team members. Throughout all of Sound’s programs, children to older adults and everyone in between… evidenced based care and metric driven service delivery is a key component to the health and wellness for those we serve.

Services are organized by population and/or geographical regions.  Sound has four Regions: Central/Metro; North, East, and South.  Additionally, we have two county wide specialty teams: Forensic Services and Community Networks Program/ IDD.

Interns at Sound can expect to work with a culturally diverse, multi-problem clientele.

A team approach is used within the agency and in collaborating with other agencies and systems, depending on the needs of each case.  Intern supervisor will provide clinical supervision, meeting individually with the intern at least one hour per week and other times as needed.  Interns participate in team meetings and clinical consultation groups.
