Wage Range: $22.99 – $37.92/hr DOE

Compass Health is seeking a compassionate and dedicated Crisis Peer Counselor to join our Child, Youth & Family Crisis Team (CYFCT) in Snohomish County. If you have lived experience with behavioral health challenges and a passion for helping others on their journey to recovery, this is a unique opportunity to turn your story into strength for others—especially during their most vulnerable moments.

As a Crisis Peer Counselor, you will provide vital peer support services during the NOC (overnight) shift, helping children, youth, adolescents, and their caregivers during behavioral health crises. Under the guidance of the Program Manager, your work will focus on stabilization, advocacy, empowerment, and community-based support.

Your core responsibilities include:

• Offering emotional support, mentorship, and hope grounded in shared lived experience.

• Assisting clients with recovery planning, coping skills, and community living strategies.

• Helping clients access mental health, substance use, and peer support services, as well as basic needs.

• Supporting the natural support systems of clients—families, friends, and caregivers—through validation and education.

• Collaborating with clinical staff to monitor client symptoms, inform treatment goals, and provide holistic care.

• Advocating for the client’s preferences and dignity in all interactions.

This is a community-based outreach role, meaning much of your work may take place outside traditional settings, including homes, schools, shelters, or other locations in the community.

The CYFCT team is made up of skilled professionals committed to trauma-informed, strength-based, and culturally responsive care. We specialize in short-term crisis intervention and prevention services for youth and families, regardless of their funding source. Our goal is to support stability and recovery by meeting families where they are—literally and emotionally.

• Lived experience with a behavioral health or substance use condition (required).

• Current Washington State Peer Counselor Certification (preferred).

• Prior experience in a peer counselor or support role (preferred).

• Must meet DOH requirements as an Agency Affiliated Counselor if not already licensed/credentialed.

• Must be at least 21 years of age and possess a valid WA State Driver’s License, reliable vehicle, and insurance

• Strong interpersonal skills, emotional intelligence, and a deep desire to help others.

• Comfort working overnight shifts and in dynamic community-based settings.
