What are the responsibilities and job description for the School Clinician position at Mill Pond School - Springfield Campus?
School Clinician
As a School Clinician with Mill Pond School Springfield Campus, the right candidate has experience working with children of varying presentations and abilities. Equally as important as experience with children is the ability to adapt to a fast-paced trauma informed therapeutic milieu. The School Clinician is an important part of the school’s leadership team and helps to support each of our students. This includes but is not limited to meeting with individual students for pre-scheduled or as needed counseling sessions, planning, and facilitating small group social skills lessons in each class, crisis evaluation and management, referring families to outside service providers when appropriate and helping to write and facilitate social, emotional, and behavioral IEP goals. The right candidate would be reliable, collaborative, adaptable to changing and flexible schedules and a team player. The right candidate must possess an MSW, preferably with a DESE or applicable therapeutic license or be license eligible.
The Mill Pond Schools, with locations in Springfield and the Berkshires, serve students—kindergarten through age 22—who have social-emotional and/or behavioral challenges, a learning disability, or who may have a diagnosis of high-functioning Autism. We are committed to serving the whole child, including the child’s family. Our goal is to assist students in developing the skills necessary to successfully return to a less-restrictive environment, and, ultimately, to their previous school setting.
