Job Description

Be part of something truly life-changing. At Essentia Health, our mission is to make a healthy difference in people’s lives. As a Psychotherapist working with patients recovering from traumatic injuries—such as strokes or amputations—you’ll play a key role in helping them and their families navigate life after significant change. This is a rehabilitation psychology focused position on the acute inpatient rehabilitation unit. Your focus will be assessment and treatment of grief, mood, and cognitive functioning of patients following significant neurological and/or functional change. Join our team and help patients reclaim independence and hope. Education Qualifications: Master’s degree in social work, psychology, marriage and family therapy, or related field. Key Responsibilities: Support patients and their families in adjusting to life after a traumatic injury (e.g., stroke, amputation), helping them adapt to a new level of independence and daily functioning. Conduct cognitive assessments focused on memory, attention, problem-solving, and executive functioning. Implement individualized cognitive rehabilitation plans to improve functional thinking and promote independence. Perform cognitive remediation—assessing functional application of thinking processes and identifying strategies for improvement. Administer standardized assessments as required by Medicare, including the PHQ, BIMS, and CAM at both admission and discharge. Works collaboratively with a multidisciplinary team to enhance patient well-being, promote emotional adjustment, provide family support, and facilitate patient engagement in the rehabilitation process. Expand your impact by cross-training in the Adult Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), helping bridge care between physical rehabilitation and mental health support.
