A dedicated, values-driven clinical leader who is passionate about integrated behavioral health, community partnership, and delivering an exceptional patient experience.

Job Duties & Responsibilities :

• Lead the clinical operations of an IOP delivered through FQHC partnerships, ensuring quality, consistency, and strong patient outcomes
• Oversee a multidisciplinary team including therapists, case managers, and community health workers
• Provide clinical supervision, mentorship, and coaching to support high-quality care and professional growth
• Maintain strong partnerships with interdisciplinary providers within the FQHC, ensuring seamless integration of patient care

• Ensure services meet the needs of a predominantly Medicaid population, including bilingual and dual-diagnosed patients
• Collaborate with leadership on program design, workflow optimization, and clinical product development
• Monitor KPIs including referral volume, provider satisfaction, and staff engagement
• Represent the organization in the field to strengthen partnerships, improve workflows, and drive innovation
• Support long-term planning for program expansion into additional age groups and service lines
