Are you someone who thrives on connecting with people, taking on tough challenges, and creating real change? Liberty Resources, Inc. is searching for a dedicated Mental Health Clinician to collaborate with both the Tompkins County Department of Social Services and the Tompkins County Family Treatment Court to provide comprehensive support and services.

Family Treatment Court aims to improve the health, safety, and stability of children whose parents are navigating the complex challenges of substance use. By supporting parents on their recovery journey and enhancing their parenting skills, we work toward building healthier families. As the clinician, you’ll be at the heart of this effort—providing essential guidance on trauma-informed care and best practices to engage and support participants. The Department of Social Services will have access to the clinician, referring children involved in their services for assessments and/or brief interventions.

Pay: $57, 000

What You’ll Do

As the Mental Health Clinician, you will:

• Conduct psychosocial assessments to understand client needs and guide treatment.
• Provide brief, solution-focused therapy to a small, rotating caseload of participants.
• Offer crisis intervention support when needed.
• Act as a mental health liaison for the FTC team and DSS caseworkers to deliver holistic, strengths-based case coordination

Is This You?

We’re looking for someone who:

• Understands substance use and mental health disorders and their impact on families.
• Has strong clinical writing skills
• Is experienced in crisis intervention and brief therapeutic models.
• Approaches their work with cultural humility and respect for diverse populations.
• Excels in engaging clients, building trust, and fostering recovery.
• Thrives in a collaborative team environment while being self-motivated and organized when working independently.

What makes this position stand out?

• Innovative approach: Family Treatment Court is a progressive approach to serving families at the intersection of mental health and the justice system. Psychosocial assessments highlights client-voice and brief intervention allows a clinician to meet people where-they-are-at when more traditional services aren’t the right fit.
• Hybrid Work: Meet with clients in person (at locations such as the FTC office, DSS, or client homes) with the option of remote work for writing or administrative tasks.

We’re Looking for Clinicians Who:

• Master’s degree in a mental health field.
• Licensure or pending licensure in your discipline (preferred but not required).
• Limited permits welcome!
• Experience working with clients who struggle with substance use – having a CASAC is a bonus!
