About the Role

Be the first clinical connection for teens and families seeking care at Adolescent Wellness Academy. You’ll lead Connection Calls: brief intake consultations with adolescents ages 13–17 and their caregivers to understand their concerns, assess safety and treatment needs, and determine whether our PHP or IOP program is an appropriate fit.

These conversations combine clinical screening with compassionate guidance. You’ll help teens feel comfortable engaging in treatment, answer caregivers’ questions, and identify concerns requiring escalation or a different level of care. After each call, you’ll document your findings and coordinate next steps with Admissions and clinical teams.
