  • Mediate interpersonal conflicts between students.
  • Build therapeutic relationships with youth to implement and support programming components within the youth's individual treatment plan and IEP.
  • Teach youth to manage their own behavior, building internal assets through the use of boundaries, guidelines, roles, and rules.
  • Use PMT techniques (as a last resort) to ensure a safe and therapeutic environment.
  • Work cooperatively with teachers, staff, and administrators to foster therapeutic and academic goals.
  • Attend all required professional development training and staff meetings.
