Clinical Admissions Specialist

Remote | Part-Time | $25-$30/hour | 5p-7p Monday-Friday

About the Role

The Clinical Admissions Specialist leads Connection Calls, clinician-led conversations with teens and their families during intake at AWA. You are the first clinical voice they hear: you build quick rapport with the adolescent, confirm the right level of care, and help parents feel confident AWA is the right fit. This role turns a family's hardest phone call into their first step toward healing.

Backgrounds that translate well: Adolescent PHP/IOP · Outpatient Therapy · Adolescent Behavioral Health · Admissions/Intake · Telehealth

What You'll Do

  • Conduct 15-30 minute Connection Calls with teens and families
  • Build rapport and gain the teen's buy-in for treatment
  • Complete brief CALOCUS assessments to confirm level of care and screen red flags
  • Explain PHP and IOP programming with accuracy and empathy
  • Walk families through placement and next steps
  • Document calls and hand off to the Admissions and treatment teams
  • Escalate families needing a higher or different level of care
  • Keep a consistent weekly schedule

What We're Looking For
Required

  • Adolescent PHP and/or IOP experience
  • Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling, Social Work, MFT, or related field
  • Clinical experience with adolescents and families
  • Warm, confident phone presence

Preferred

  • Active licensure or registered intern status
  • Comfort working independently and remotely
  • Private home office for confidential conversations
  • Bilingual (English/Spanish)

AWA and PRC are dual behavioral health organizations operating PHP and IOP programs across South Florida. We exist to serve clients and families at their most critical moments — and this role sits at the front door of that mission.
