Position Summary

The Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health (IECMH) Clinical Supervisor will provide mental health assessment and intervention to support children and their families from birth to three years old while also providing Clinical Supervision to IECMH therapists.

IECMH Therapists provide mental health intervention to support children and their families from birth-to-six-years-old. IECMH Therapists are part of the IECMH team and Children's Developmental Services (CDS) program. IECMH Therapists will work in collaboration utilizing evidence-based practices to support attachment related concerns and impacts of trauma and social emotional delays as appropriate. If the child is receiving Early Supports for Infants & Toddlers (ESIT) services, then the services must be provided in the child's natural environment. If the child is not participating in ESIT services, then the mental health services will be provided in the environment that meets each child/family's needs, which may be the home, community, or clinic setting. IECMH therapists will work as a member of the larger IECMH/CDS team to support children from a whole child/whole family perspective with a focus on the integration of both physical and mental health services to support each unique child.

The IECMH Clinical Supervisor will work closely with the IECMH Lead to guide best practice, provide on-going clinical supervision to IECMH therapists and participate in on-going training and professional development.
