Job Description

Job DescriptionStep into a vital role as a Mental Health Technician in Saint Albans, Vermont, and become a cornerstone in a compassionate care team dedicated to restoring dignity, stability, and hope for individuals navigating mental health challenges. This is your opportunity to apply keen clinical skills, empathetic communication, and crisis-informed care to make a measurable difference every shift. Imagine using evidence-based de-escalation techniques, collaborative treatment planning, and patient-centered support to foster safer environments, promote recovery, and empower families along the journey toward wellness. In Vermont, you’ll experience the state’s distinctive blend of rural charm and vibrant community life, with pine-scented air and scenic landscapes painting a backdrop for meaningful work. From tranquil lake views to rolling hills and autumnal colors, Vermont offers restorative spaces that complement the rewarding nature of your mission. Saint Albans itself welcomes you with a tight-knit community feel, accessible outdoor recreation, and a quality of life that makes it easier to bring your best self to every assignment. And if you’re drawn to broader horizons, this role also offers the unique chance to work across various locations in the U.S., expanding your clinical repertoire while enriching your personal and professional perspectives.

Working in Saint Albans provides a front-row seat to a balanced, engaging lifestyle. You’ll be close to local cultural events, farmers’ markets, and the region’s outdoor playgrounds, with easy access to larger urban hubs for occasional excursions. The opportunity to contribute to the care of diverse patient populations across the country adds depth to your professional journey, enabling you to apply and refine trauma-informed approaches, evidence-based behavioral strategies, and collaborative care practices in a variety of settings. Traveling assignments also encourage adaptability, strengthen interdisciplinary communication, and broaden your knowledge of state-specific regulations and resources. The combination of steady rural influence and access to broader travel experiences makes this a compelling environment to grow as a Mental Health Technician while maintaining balance outside the clinical room.

In this role, you will be involved in direct patient supervision and support, assisting with daily routines, monitoring behaviors, and maintaining a safe, therapeutic environment. You’ll participate in the assessment and documentation of patient status, support crisis intervention and de-escalation when needed, and collaborate closely with nurses, psychiatrists, social workers, and case managers to implement individualized care plans. You’ll help with medication adherence reminders, group and one-on-one activities, psychoeducation for patients and families, and the reinforcement of coping strategies through structured routines. The position promises valuable opportunities for professional growth within the mental health specialty, including exposure to varied clinical presentations, crisis-response scenarios, and evidence-based care modalities. Compensation is competitive and designed to recognize your expertise, with a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and potential extension opportunities to continue shaping your skills and career trajectory. You’ll enjoy guaranteed hours at 40 per week, with a weekly pay range of $615–$636, and the assignment begins on 11/30/2025. This structured yet flexible arrangement supports your capacity to focus on clinical excellence while enjoying stability and steady income. Please note that the stated hours and pay rates are estimates and may vary; final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process.

Support is a core pillar of our program. As you travel and serve across communities, you’ll have access to 24/7 support from a dedicated travel team and clinical leadership, ensuring you never navigate challenges alone. Our comprehensive support system guides you from onboarding through every step of the assignment, providing resources for housing, transportation, licensure questions, and professional mentorship. This is more than a job; it’s a partnership that prioritizes your safety, well-being, and continued growth as a health professional.

Our company is rooted in empowerment. We are committed to helping you advance in your career, expanding your scope of practice, and building a sustainable, fulfilling work life. You’ll operate within a culture that values compassion, collaboration, continuous learning, and clinical integrity. You’ll encounter leaders who invest in your development through structured orientation, ongoing education opportunities, performance feedback, and pathways to leadership roles as you expand your expertise in mental health care. The environment is inclusive and supportive, designed to help you thrive professionally while delivering exceptional care to those who need it most.

If you’re driven by purpose, ready to embrace new experiences, and eager to contribute to a vibrant, supportive team, this is your moment. Apply now to embark on a journey that honors your skills, expands your impact, and champions your professional development. Join us to shape compassionate mental health care journeys across Saint Albans, Vermont, and beyond, while building lasting, positive change in the lives of patients and communities. This is more than a job—it’s a commitment to you, your growth, and the people you serve.

Please remember: the hours and pay rates listed are estimates and may vary. Final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process, and start date, location, and contract length are subject to assignment availability and regulatory requirements.
