About the Unit
HDVCH Behavioral Health is a growing clinic that offers psychiatry, psychology, and therapy services. At our primary location, 35 Michigan St, we provide psychiatric medication management services, psychological testing, and an autism spectrum disorders clinic. Our secondary location, 25 Michigan St, includes psychological testing and therapy services. Because of the nature of our services, we tend to have a high volume of psychiatric and therapy services provided virtually. We currently have 8 psychiatry and APP providers and 18 psychology and psychotherapy providers with additional growth on the horizon. We have two clinical staff and are looking to fill an additional third position. The clinic also has clerical staff to assist with referrals and scheduling calls.
Our clinical staff include both medical assistants (MA) and ambulatory care technicians (ACT). Responsibilities include rooming for virtual and in-person visits, inclusive of obtaining vitals and completion of necessary screenings as applicable, answering clinic phones, addressing in-basket messages, obtaining prior authorizations, communicating with providers regarding patient needs, and provide other clinical support as needed. While we are a behavioral health clinic and our clinical staff may not have as many medical responsibilities as other medical specialties, our patients are often experiencing many complexities and require clinical attentiveness.

There are over 40 different types of primary care and specialty practices, which allows those who work in these clinics the opportunity to learn and explore various interests or to specialize in one area.
