Crisis Mental Health Therapist

Who we are:

Since 1971 Western Montana Mental Health Center (WMMHC) has been the center of community partnership in the 15 counties we serve across Western Montana. We have committed to providing whole-person; person-centered care by ensuring an approach to health care that emphasizes recovery, wellness, trauma-informed care, and physical-behavioral health integration. We know the work we do is important and makes a significant impact in the lives of our clients and in our communities.

Working at WMMHC also gives you the opportunity to work under the Big Sky, giving you the adventure of a lifetime while serving your community and changing lives. We offer a work life balance so you still have time to discover all the natural beauty and recreational dreams that Montana has to offer while still engaging in a career path that is challenging and fulfilling.

If you want to join our team where community is at the heart of what we do, then you have come to the right place

Job Summary:

The Crisis Mental Health Professional Person (MHPP) Therapist utilizes clinical expertise to perform crisis assessments and provide disposition for clients referred to us by law enforcement, hospitals and various community partners interacting with those experiencing psychiatric emergencies in Western Montana. As part of a multi-disciplinary team, the MHPP works to provide timely evaluation services to assess mental status and risk for harm to self and others or those who are otherwise in need of imminent mental health support. In this role, the MHPP guides the process of determining clinical need for hospitalization or crisis house placement. In certain cases, the MHPP will determine need for placement at the Montana State hospital and provides testimony in court during this process.

This fast-paced and challenging role is ideal for a person with a strong sense of empathy, decision-making skills and ability to collaborate with community partners. The ability to handle crisis, multi-task and perform clinical work independently using a tele-health platform will be key in this remote work opportunity. Additionally, the ideal candidate will be able to successfully communicate within an interdisciplinary team environment and provide consultation to other clinicians and staff.
