Job Description

Crisis Stabilization Therapist– Allhealth Network

At AllHealth Network, compassion isn’t just a value — it’s the foundation of everything we do. We believe people do their best work when they feel supported, respected, and trusted. Our Acute Care teams operate in fast-paced, high-acuity environments where collaboration, empathy, and clinical excellence come together to support individuals during some of the most critical moments of their lives.

As a licensed Crisis Stabilization Therapist (CSU), you’ll be an essential part of a multidisciplinary team providing crisis intervention, assessment, and stabilization services across our 24/7 Walk-In Crisis Clinic, Acute Treatment Unit (ATU), and Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU). You’ll bring curiosity, clinical skill, and respect for human dignity into every interaction — helping individuals and families navigate crisis with safety, structure, and hope for recovery.

This role offers a meaningful opportunity to work with high-acuity populations, including individuals experiencing severe mental health symptoms, substance use crises, and those involved with involuntary treatment processes. You’ll play a vital role in ensuring clinical, legal, and ethical standards are upheld while supporting continuity of care across levels of service.

What You’LL Do

  • Provide comprehensive clinical assessments, crisis evaluations, and safety planning for individuals experiencing mental health and/or substance use crises.
  • Deliver individual and group therapeutic interventions focused on stabilization, symptom reduction, and short-term treatment goals.
  • Utilize evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT-informed interventions, motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed care.
  • Intervene in crisis situations using de-escalation techniques and least-restrictive interventions to promote client and staff safety.
  • Collaborate closely with nursing, medical providers, care managers, peer specialists, and other interdisciplinary team members to coordinate care.
  • Support clients through transitions between levels of care, including admissions, transfers, and discharge planning.
  • Coordinate referrals and link clients to community-based services and ongoing behavioral health supports.
  • Ensure compliance with Colorado mental health statutes, involuntary treatment regulations, Medicaid requirements, and Behavioral Health Administration standards.
  • Maintain accurate, timely, and clinically sound documentation in the electronic health record.
  • Participate in interdisciplinary rounds, team meetings, supervision, and ongoing professional development activities. Utilize recovery‑oriented principles including client choice, empowerment, hope, advocacy, meaningful engagement, and collaboration with identified supports to facilitate client‑centered care and recovery goals.
  • Provide integrated assessment and intervention for individuals experiencing challenges related to co‑occurring conditions and chronic health concerns.
  • Gather collateral information and provide treatment updates, as appropriate, to support treatment planning, disposition planning, and continuity of care.
  • Demonstrate the physical and psychological ability to engage in or support physical interventions when necessary to ensure safety and least‑restrictive care.

What You Bring

  • Master’s degree in Social Work, Counseling, Psychology, or a related behavioral health field.
  • Licensure preferred- LCSW (preferred), LAC (preferred), LPC, or LMFT
  • Preferred two (2) years of experience working in an inpatient psychiatric, acute care, or crisis clinical setting.
  • Demonstrated expertise in acute psychiatric crisis assessment, including suicide and violence risk assessment.
  • Knowledge of Colorado mental health statutes, including involuntary treatment processes under C. R. S. 27‑65.
  • Strong clinical assessment, diagnostic, and therapeutic engagement skills with diverse populations, utilizing evidence‑based treatment models aligned with presenting needs.
  • Working knowledge of DSM‑5‑TR, recovery‑oriented care, and trauma‑informed treatment principles.
  • Familiarity with community resources and referral processes within the Colorado Behavioral Health System.
  • Proficiency with clinical documentation standards, electronic health records (EHR), and general PC‑based applications including Word and Excel.
  • Strong written and verbal communication, sound clinical judgment, effective problem‑solving, and time‑management skills.

Why You’LL Love Working Here

  • A culture rooted in compassion, care, and integrity, where clinicians are valued as people first.
  • Strong work-life balance supported by flexible scheduling options and manageable caseloads.
  • The autonomy to shape your work, with leadership that trusts your professional judgment.
  • Regular supervision and consultation opportunities with experienced clinicians and leaders.
  • Clear paths for professional growth through continuing education, mentorship, and leadership development.
  • A comprehensive benefits package and a supportive environment where your voice matters.
  • The opportunity to serve a diverse and high-impact population, making a real difference every day in the lives of individuals, families, and our community.
