Job Description: Substance Abuse Counselor II / Prevention Case Manager (SAC/PCM)

–    Work on a Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration funded project providing both substance abuse treatment and HIV risk reduction counseling and case management services to young adult men-who-have-sex-with-men of color in the Long Beach area.
–    The SAC/PCM will work as part of a team including outreach, counseling, case management, and mental health staff.
Project Abstract:
Behavioral Health Services, Inc. (BHS) substance abuse treatment programs have provided services to people living with, or at high risk of contracting HIV/AIDS, since the beginning of the epidemic in Los Angeles County. BHS, in partnership with the Gay and Lesbian Community Center of Greater Long Beach (GLCC), will provide substance abuse counseling and prevention case management services to 18 – 29 year old men-who-have-sex-with-men (MSM) of color in the Greater Long Beach area.
This will be accomplished through
•    targeted street and internet outreach to the population,
•    education and engagement leading toward testing for HIV and Hepatitis,
•    provision of substance abuse counseling and case management services focusing on risk reduction related to HIV and viral Hepatitis, and
•    linkage to appropriate medical care and social services to ensure participants the maximum opportunity to decrease/eliminate their use of drugs and alcohol or their potential to contract/transmit HIV in sexual and/or drug using situations.
BHS and GLCC will have staff paid through this project and co-located at the GLCC. Project coordination will be shared by the GLCC Administrator and the BHS Divisional Director from BHS Redgate Memorial Recovery Center in Long Beach, California.
Outreach staff will screen a minimum of 300 young adult MSM in the Long Beach area, enrolling at least 100 participants each year into project services. All participants will be encouraged to test for HIV and viral Hepatitis, unless they are already aware of a positive status, and linked to medical care through Ryan White funded providers, or through local Federally Qualified Health Centers.
Participants will also be assisted in enrolling in Healthy Way LA, or other insurance providers for which they may be eligible in line with the Affordable Care Act provisions being implemented within Los Angeles County.
Prevention Case Managers (PCM) will be qualified substance abuse counselors with significant experience in the provision of HIV prevention counseling. PCMs will provide substance abuse counseling through the implementation of Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET). MET is an evidence-based practice which has been adapted/evaluated for use with HIV prevention counseling in both seropositive and high risk negative individuals, as well as for reducing/eliminating the use of drugs and/or alcohol. Medical Detoxification and Residential Substance Abuse Treatment will be provided at BHS Redgate Memorial Recovery Center through leveraged funds at no cost to this project or the participants.
MET was chosen not only for its adaptability, but for its client-driven direction throughout the counseling relationship. MET encourages a “no wrong door” approach to treatment planning and goal/action step planning for each participant, ensuring maximum buy-in from individual participants throughout their treatment process.

Comments:
–    Must have experience working with gay/bisexually-behaving males.

Position Title:    Addiction Counselor

Position Description:    At Lionrock Recovery, we offer addiction treatment online by secure, high definition, six simultaneous participant, video conference.

The Lionrock program was recently awarded full accreditation by the Joint Commission. Our clinical chief, Roland Williams, MA, LAADC, ICADC, NCACII, ACRPS, SAP, has over 25 years experience treating addiction, and has co-founded two high-end substance abuse treatment centers in the San Francisco area, Bayside Marin and Alta Mira. Our addiction counselors are highly-experienced and nationally-certified. Our Intensive Outpatient program conforms to the best practices for Intensive Outpatient Treatment. All Lionrock Recovery communications and case records are online, encrypted, and HIPAA-compliant.

Lionrock Addiction Counselors carry a caseload of five clients in a single group which requires approximately 20 hours/week. We currently offer a 9:30am group and a 6:30pm group, both in Pacific Time. Because our clients are national, we expect to expand this schedule over time, and counselors carrying two groups (ten clients total) will eventually be a possibility. Counselors work from their own home or office, and must ensure adequate privacy for their work. Lionrock provides some tools, but requires counselors to have their own cable or DSL Internet connection, and appropriate computer with webcam.

Lionrock Recovery counselors can live anywhere in the U.S.

Qualifications:    Please be nationally-certified (and not an intern), and be comfortable facilitating groups, counseling individuals, and planning treatment. Our entire interview process is conducted by video conference, part of which may be to facilitate a mock group of five “clients” from our team. We look forward to meeting you!

Position Title:    Harm Reduction Clinician

Position Description:
We have a unique and challenging clinical opportunity at our Substance Use & Misuse Clinical Service Program located at Harborside Health Center, Oakland CA. Harborside Health Center is a cutting edge medical cannabis facility (http://www.harborsidehealthcenter.com/index.html) that has invested in an innovative harm reduction program. This is a non-judgmental, consumer-driven program that aims to increase access to alternative substance use and misuse services for those who seek it. The program has been serving patients for nearly 2 years.

Our program has an evidence-based eclectic framework based on tenets of the harm reduction model, cognitive-behavioral theories, and positive psychology. We believe that understanding motivational interviewing techniques and working under the ‘stages of change’ umbrella is fundamental. Knowledge of cognitive restructuring and behavior modification techniques is also important. Drug misuse is multifaceted therefore a ‘holistic view’ grounds all services. Because individual strengths, problems, needs, and resources vary greatly an individualized lens is essential in all practice.

Patients seeking services range from those seeking more information about medical cannabis and other substances to patients looking to reduce risks to patients seeking moderation management support to those seeking to exit the use of particular substances such as tobacco, alcohol, or pharmaceuticals.

Qualifications:
We are seeking an experienced harm reduction clinician for brief individual one-on-one counseling, to conduct individual consultation, assessment and referral, and to facilitate harm reduction educational and therapeutic groups.

Individual sessions include: supported patient self-discovery to assess issues, implementation of harm reduction and moderation management skills, goal setting, skill building, etc. You will see approximately 6 patients per week.

Consultations are a semi-structured interview style session including information sharing, formal assessment, recommendations and patient follow-up.

You will also lead a weekly 1-hour group session focused on medical cannabis information and harm reduction. To apply you must have extensive understanding of medical cannabis literature.

This is an hourly position and we ask for a commitment of between 7 to 9 hours per week. You must carry your own general and liability insurance. Position open immediately. Qualified and serious inquiries only. Please send resume or curriculum vitae to Jennifer Janichek, MA at janichek.harmreduction@gmail.com

Our addiction counselors are highly-experienced and nationally-certified. Our Intensive Outpatient program conforms to the best practices for Intensive Outpatient Treatment. All Lionrock Recovery communications and case records are online, encrypted, and HIPAA-compliant.

We’re currently helping our first clients in their struggle with addiction, and expect to need more counselors soon.

Lionrock Addiction Counselors carry a caseload of five clients in a single group which requires approximately 20 hours/week. We currently offer a 9:30am group and a 6:30pm group, both in Pacific Time. Because our clients are national, we expect to expand this schedule over time, and counselors carrying two groups (ten clients total) will eventually be a possibility. Counselors work from their own home or office, and must ensure adequate privacy for their work. Lionrock provides some tools, but requires counselors to have their own cable or DSL Internet connection, and appropriate computer with webcam.

Lionrock Recovery counselors can live anywhere in the U.S.

Qualifications:    Please be nationally-certified (and not an intern), and be comfortable facilitating groups, counseling individuals, and planning treatment. Our entire interview process is conducted by video conference, part of which may be to facilitate a mock group of five “clients” from our team. We look forward to meeting you!

Position Title:    Counselor

Position Description:    We have been providing individual psychotherapy, online by live video chat, for more than a year. We are now building a next generation substance abuse treatment center, also online by live video conference. We will soon offer an intensive outpatient program for chemical dependency. Roland Williams, co-founder of the Bayside Marin and Alta Mira Recovery centers, with 25 years of experience in the addiction treatment field, is leading our program development, and he will serve as acting Clinical Director through the launch phase.

Our program will deliver treatment via high-definition desktop video conferencing, encrypted to military standards. Our practice area is national, and eventually global. We will offer morning and evening programs.

We are very close to launch, and we need a few nationally-certified addiction counselors to join us. Please be at least a Registered Addiction Specialist if you apply. Duties in this position will include screening phone calls, intake, orientation, treatment planing, documentation, individual and group counseling, preparing and presenting psychoeducation lectures, and family counseling. Initially, it may be somewhat part time, but we expect that as we grow, there will be lots of work to do. Our offices are located in Mountain View, CA, and initially, counselors will provide treatment from our office studios. Over time, we expect that our counselors will practice from wherever they are.
