Job Title: School-Based Behavioral Health Clinician

Reports to: Behavioral Health Director

Status: Full Time / Part Time

Location/s: 1 position in Oceanside & 1 position in National City

The Organization

Operation Samahan (OpSam Health) is a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) that serves the San Diego County community. Founded in 1973 in a barber shop in Downtown San Diego by Filipino health professionals offering services to immigrants who did not have the finances, linguistic skills, or ability to navigate the health care system. Today, Operation Samahan has evolved into a diverse community health center with services available in National City, Mira Mesa, City Heights, and Rancho Penasquitos. We provide primary care, dental, behavioral health, family planning, integrative health and wellness, healthy eating, civic engagement, and other health-related services to the uninsured, underinsured, and underserved families of all income levels, regardless of their ability to pay.

JOB PURPOSE

Opsam Health is seeking a qualified and passionate Behavioral Health Clinician to join our team. The primary responsibility of this role is to implement a school-based, prevention-focused program using the evidence-based curriculum, RAP-A (Resourceful Adolescent Program for Adolescents). This program is designed to build resilience and prevent mental health issues among adolescents.

In addition to delivering the RAP-A curriculum, the clinician will provide individual therapy to adolescents who require more intensive support beyond the preventive level. This includes developing personalized treatment plans and using evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address various emotional, behavioral, and psychological challenges.

Furthermore, the clinician will play a vital role in coordinating with school personnel, such as teachers, counselors, and administrative staff, to ensure a comprehensive approach to student well-being. The clinician will also collaborate with community organizations to enhance the support network available to students, ensuring they receive holistic and preventative behavioral health services. This position is integral to promoting mental health and well-being within the school environment and the broader community.
