• Collaborate with other treatment professionals, with appropriate release of information, as needed to best support clients in reaching their goals

• Manage caseload and engage in self-promotion or marketing efforts as needed to maintain caseload or billing minimums. Although some referrals may be provided by the practice, contractors are ultimately responsible for acquiring and maintaining their client base to achieve billing minimums.

• Strong diagnostic, assessment, and treatment planning skills

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

• Ability to work independently and manage a caseload effectively
