What are the responsibilities and job description for the Mental Health Clinician position at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and Careers?

Make a difference where it matters most.

Join a dedicated team of professionals working at the intersection of behavioral health and public safety. As a Mental Health Clinician with Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Managed Care at the Clements Correctional Unit, you’ll play a vital role in supporting a population with complex needs—providing care that promotes stability, rehabilitation, and long-term wellness.

This is an exciting opportunity for a dedicated professional looking to make a difference in the field of mental health. In this role, you will provide psychological evaluations, diagnostic services, and counseling to an assigned patient caseload. While working under the guidance of a senior clinician, you’ll have the chance to take full responsibility for your clinical actions and decisions. This position offers a great balance of independent work with limited administrative and supervisory duties, making it perfect for someone eager to grow and apply their expertise in a supportive environment.

Why This Role Stands Out:
  • Meaningful Impact: You’ll deliver critical mental health services to underserved individuals, helping them navigate challenges and improve their quality of life.
  • Professional Growth: Work in a dynamic clinical environment with a diverse caseload. You’ll collaborate with security and medical staff, and gain unique experience in crisis intervention, forensic assessment, and trauma-informed care.
  • Team-Based Culture: You’ll join a supportive team of clinicians who value collaboration, ethical practice, and professional excellence.
  • Structured & Supportive Environment: With set schedules and low client no-show rates, you’ll be able to focus on what matters—delivering high-quality care.
  • Job Stability & Benefits: Enjoy consistent hours, competitive pay, retirement options, generous leave policies, and access to training and certification programs.
