They will learn to engage with clients in the process of mental health treatment and will also be required to learn some of the essential elements of documenting services, initiating and maintaining an active chart and a treatment plan. In addition, they will be expected to provide in-person and tele-health services, based on client care, training needs and federal requirements. We are a community-based agency, it will be expected to also provide services at schools.
