Clinical Admissions Specialist

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.
