Description
Title: Social Worker
Unit: Behavioral Health Services
Salary Range: $65,000 - $70,000
Reports to: ClinicalDirector, Behavioral Health Services
Status: Full-Time; Exempt
Location: Long Island City
Days/Hours: Monday through Friday, generally 9:00am-5:00pm, 4 days on site and 1 day remote, with 1-2 days 12:00pm-8:00pm
Position Summary:
The Social Worker is a member of the Behavioral Health Services Unit, which includes an Article 31 Office of Mental Health (OMH) Mental Health Outpatient Treatment and Rehabilitative Services (MHOTRS) center and Article 32 Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) program. The Social Worker is responsible for providing therapy to clients with histories of criminal justice involvement and will have a mixed caseload of those with primary diagnoses of substance use disorder, mental health and/or co-occurring diagnoses. The majority of the services will be conducted on-site at Fortune's Long Island City location but may also involve some delivery of telehealth services remotely. Additionally, although the primary location for this position is Long Island City, there may be travel to other Fortune locations outside the Queens area (i.e.: Fortune's Bronx locations). This is an excellent growth position, especially for newly licensed therapists who are looking to explore career opportunities in both modalities (MH and SUD).
Core Competencies:
Mission Fit
The ideal candidate can demonstrate an interest in, and talent for, working with people with criminal justice system involvement and co-occurring diagnoses. The successful candidate will understand the impacts exposure to the criminal justice system may have on clients and will show a commitment to helping them overcome these difficulties. The successful candidate will also have a commitment to using respectful, constructive means of communication when interacting with clients and colleagues. The candidate will also be adept at utilizing a strengths-based, person-centered model and will endorse the concept of looking for the best in people, rather than judging them by their worst decision(s).
Client Engagement
The successful candidate will complete the required screening tools to build comprehensive psychosocial evaluations accurately and efficiently. While engaging in services with clients, the candidate will be able to practice multiple theoretical frameworks and tailor the therapeutic approach to the client based on ongoing assessment and clinical need. The candidate will also demonstrate a positive attitude toward flexibility of schedule in rolling with the changes that a person newly entering therapeutic services often demonstrates.
Time Management & Organizational Skills
The ideal candidate will possess excellent time management skills including making, keeping and/or rescheduling appointments on their own personal calendar and managing psychiatric appointments for clients on their caseload. This position also requires excellent organizational skills and the ability to consistently complete requisite paperwork and service documentation accurately and in real time. Good computer navigation skills, a demonstrated ability to work with multiple database/EHR systems, and a proficiency with MS Office and telehealth equipment are also requisite.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
Conduct initial client assessment and psychosocial interviews;
Develop a therapeutic alliance with clients;
Provide ongoing individual counseling and weekly group counseling;
Write and update individual client-based, goal-oriented treatment plans following state regulatory and agency guidelines and timeframes;
Maintain proper case records, with all case notes completed within 48 hours of interaction.
Maintain on-going clinical communication with supervisor;
Communicate with other Fortune staff members in the same and other programs/locations that share common client(s);
Provide linkages to outside agencies for additional services;
Participate in case conferences and clinical supervision meetings;
Perform other duties as assigned.
Qualifications
Qualifications: LMSW, LCSW, MHC-LP, or LMHC required;
CASAC credential is a plus;
Minimum of one year overall clinical experience required;
Experience in dealing with either psychiatric issues, trauma or incarceration desired;
Ability, on some days, to work remotely via Zoom in a quiet, private home-office location required;
Excellent client-engagement and counseling skills;
Excellent clinical documentation and time management skills;
Strong computer skills, particularly in electronic health records;
Bilingual Spanish-speaking is a plus;
SIFI certification is a plus;
We seek talented, dedicated individuals from all levels of society who possess a strong commitment to this mission. Relevant personal experience is a plus.
Physical Demands:
To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The responsibilities and requirements listed are representative of the knowledge, skills, minimum education, training, licensing, experience and/or ability required. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of the job.
