Working Conditions
You will need to do both in office and telehealth depending on client needs. Additional Details We will provide a flexible working environment with a lot of autonomy. We require absolute digital processing of all paperwork, so you must be good with computers and applications that support healthcare and office applications. You will most likely have some clients at the start transitioning from a previous counselor, and should reach a full case load within a month or so of starting.
