Clinical Supervisor

Full-Time employee, hourly (i.e., you are paid for the hours you work) FULL licensed mental health counselor or psychologist position in Redmond, WA. with shift hours ranging from morning, afternoon, weekend, and evening hours. The position is heavily providing clinical supervision and consultation to associate-level mental health counselors. The position also includes providing a portion of behavioral psychotherapy to individuals on the autism spectrum on the eastside (Redmond, Duvall, Woodinville, Kirkland, Bellevue, etc.), within their home and community settings (i.e., school, after school clubs, sports, etc.) for training and supervisory purposes.

• A brief snapshot about the position:
  • Provide clinical supervision and consultation to assigned supervisees and throughout our psychology department.
  • Most of the therapy you would be providing is for children on the autism spectrum. (you may have a few adults on your caseload as well as individual psychotherapy clients without an autism diagnosis, if that is an interest of yours.) Due to the nature of their diagnosis and co-occurring symptoms, longer therapy sessions that are able to target multiple goals a few times within that span has a greater likelihood of skill acquisition. For example, you might have 6 clients that you see a few times a week, for 2-4 hour long sessions in a given day.
  • You will be responsible for updating treatment plans as needed, and at least every 6 months.
  • You will be responsible for helping ensure supervisees are conducting themselves in an ethical and legal manner.
  • It is expected that you will be able to be part of team meetings and coach parents as appropriate to facilitate generalization of skills, and meet with team members during the week and throughout the course of treatment as needed to ensure continuity of care occurs.
  • Complete progress notes in a timely manner, and update your timesheets accurately.
  • Communicate about your needs and struggles, when you need help or more supervision, when things are going well, with us about any feedback as appropriate, and function as part of our interdisciplinary team.
  • Track data and goals to ensure progress is occurring, and determine when stagnation and regression is seen; problem solve, with the team, or in-vivo, to determine functionality of said challenges, and best course(s) of action.
  • Conduct intakes where appropriate.
  • Overall, provide a solid foundation for our associate-level clinicians in helping them fulfill their licensure hours, and prepare to become fully-licensed clinicians.
  • Additionally, it is expected you will also track data and goals in a systematic, objective and linear fashion, and utilize your approaches as appropriate and individually tailored for the client. That is to say, we want you to be you, and meet the clients (and your supervisees) where they are at given approaches you are naturally inclined to use and are appropriate for the client - motivational interviewing, psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, person-centered, existentialism, behaviorism, art therapy, dance movement therapy, mindfulness, gestalt, ACT, are among some of the approaches our therapists integrate into the therapy they provide to clients.
