Job Description:
About LyraLyra is transforming mental health care through
technology with a human touch to help people feel emotionally
healthy at work and at home. We work with industry leaders, such as
Morgan Stanley, Uber, Amgen, and other Fortune 500 companies, to
improve access to effective, high-quality mental health care for
their employees and their families. With our innovative digital
care platform and global provider network, 10 million people can
receive the best care and feel better, faster. Founded by David
Ebersman, former CFO of Facebook and Genentech, Lyra has raised
more than $900 million in funding to support our mission of
improving access to high quality mental healthcare. About the
RoleLyra developed an innovative video therapy program called Lyra
Care Therapy: blending live video sessions with between-session
digital psychoeducation and customizable skill building tools. We
also have a powerful program called Lyra Renew, specializing in
substance use and mental health recovery. This role combines the
strengths and benefits of these two programs, providing resources
and support to ensure that your clients get better-all while
improving access to mental health care from your home or preferred
setting. Daily: As a Lyra Care Therapist, you'll provide
short-term, evidence-based outpatient treatment via live video.
You'll assign digital lessons, videos, and assessments to your
clients to enhance learnings and monitor outcomes between sessions.
In addition to the core Lyra Care Therapist role working with
diverse mental health presentations for 80% of caseload, Renew
therapists work in our interdisciplinary team providing specialized
outpatient substance use support for 20% of caseload. You will have
the flexibility to dedicate more of your caseload to substance use
treatment to further diversify your clinical work, according to
your interests. An important note: Lyra's clients come from a
multitude of different backgrounds and experiences, and have
varying needs and abilities. We strive to continue to meet their
unique needs by delivering culturally responsive care-an approach
that accounts for the impact of cultural backgrounds on each
person's care experience. In Renew, we recognize that words matter
in the mission to overcome societal and healthcare stigma around
alcohol and substance use. We intentionally use language and
communication to destigmatize treatment and promote our clients'
overall well-being within their cultural context.Regularly: Our
Lyra Care therapists enjoy connecting with their peers. You will
find instant community with other providers from AUD/SUD training
backgrounds (inpatient, outpatient, acute settings) who share a
passion for providing evidence-based care. You'll attend one-on-one
and peer group clinical consultation meetings. You'll attend a
Renew multidisciplinary team meeting, where you'll have access to
medical consultations with an expert physician. You'll attend
ongoing, robust training to enhance your clinical skills, including
Renew workshops on AUD/SUD clinical topics. You always have a team
behind you if a crisis comes up. You're never alone, even while
working remotely within the US. This role is a great fit if you're
a California licensed clinician with experience in addiction
treatment from a clinical setting, or have training in substance
use treatment, who would like to join our interdisciplinary team
providing specialized substance use support through individual
outpatient teletherapy sessions. If you would enjoy a balanced
caseload of clients with diverse mental health presentations (80%)
and those with primary AUD treatment needs (20%), then this role is
for you! Renew clients are part of our outpatient program working
with Lyra therapists and physicians to develop the best treatment
plan. Renew clients have peer recovery support through groups and
1:1 meetings to enhance their care.
