Job Summary:

Dalton Associates is seeking a Mental Health Counsellor (“Counsellor”) who has a passion for supporting dynamic, customized, collaborative, and community-focused mental health and wellness programs in partnership with First Nation communities and regional authorities in northern Ontario. As a contracted Mental Health Counsellor, you would be travelling to a remote First Nation community in Northern Ontario at least once per month for approximately 10 days (with approximately 3 to 4 weeks off between trips). Travel for this role is mandatory. For the duration of time out of community you would work as an Independent Contractor. There may also be opportunities to work on other programs throughout Dalton Associates, or there may be additional travel opportunities for Contractors who are interested in longer trips or those who wish to travel to multiple communities. Dalton Associates offers a competitive daily rate, covers the cost for travel to and from community, and provides a per diem rate for food and other expenses. Scope of Practice: Counsellors should have experience and skill in a variety of therapeutic modalities balanced with a commitment to Indigenous cultural humility and safety. Counselling / therapeutic services that align with a strength-based approach that is healing centred, trauma informed, and culturally safe are imperative to this position. The Counsellor will be committed to providing mental health services in a community or communities in Northern Ontario on a predetermined and agreed-upon scheduled rotation for a minimum of a one (1) year commitment.

Responsibilities:

Provide confidential in-person mental health counselling / therapy for members of an Indigenous community or communities in Northern Ontario.
Collaborate with community-based and travelling primary care, mental health, and support service providers to ensure continuity of care for community members.
Engage with community members and providers to develop trust and rapport.
Ensure timely follow-up with all referred clients and referral sources to close the communication loop.
Maintain regular communication with the designated Project Lead or Manager of Indigenous Mental Wellness Services at Dalton Associates during visits to the community.
Ensure all administrative duties are completed in a timely manner, including (but not limited to) documentation of client consent and documentation of session notes.
Utilize the approved, secure electronic health record system for all documentation requirements.
Participate in community and program expectations of professionalism and cultural safety; and
Participate in team meetings as organized and facilitated by the Manager of Indigenous Mental Wellness Services at Dalton Associates.

Requirements and Logistics:

A Master of Social Work degree or registration with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW), or an acceptable equivalent (i.e., Registered Psychotherapist or Traditional Counsellor) combination of education and experience.
Ability to travel monthly and the ability to work on a flexible schedule with dedicated time in / time out of the community.
Experience working alongside Indigenous communities, with knowledge of Indigenous wellness and priorities, is an asset.
Experience working remote, isolated locations is an asset.
Minimum requirement of 2 years experience working in the mental health field and experience providing counselling / therapy services to children, youth, adults and/or older adults who present with varied and diverse mental health concerns.
Strong administrative and documentation skills.
Individual with Indigenous background and/or fluency in the Cree/Oji-Cree/Ojibway language is an asset.

Dalton Associates is an equal opportunity employer, committed to the full inclusion of all qualified individuals. Reasonable accommodations will be made available upon request for candidates taking part in any step of the recruitment and selection process.
