Mental Health Coach (NBC-HWC or ICF Certified)

About the Mental Health Coach (Part-Time W2) at Headspace:

As a Mental Health Coach with Headspace, you play an instrumental role in making our mission a reality! You will help people adapt to living healthier lives by discovering their personal strengths, motivations, and skills that will enable them to make lasting changes in their mindsets and behaviors. Coaches have regular touchpoints w/ their members to assist them in constructing attainable goals, offer support and encouragement, track successes and setbacks, and provide resources, tips and strategies to facilitate on-going progress.

Coaches are an integral part of each member’s multidisciplinary care team. They use previous clinical and/or coaching experience, good judgment, and our guidelines to discern when to refer members to a higher level of care, such as Therapy and/or Psychiatry, or other internal or external resources. You will collaborate with our psychiatrists and therapists to help develop and reinforce progress, as appropriate.

Headspace coaching is delivered through text-based chat and video within the Headspace app, and coaches are trained and expected to support members across multiple modalities, including real-time (“in-the-moment”) support, scheduled chat sessions, and video coaching. This means as a Headspace coach you’ll be providing services through the use of a computer and with a strong ability to translate your skillset both into writing and verbally. In addition to coaching our members, you’ll also take advantage of team meetings, supervision, and training.

Headspace coaches are ready to be part of a community working collaboratively to bring greater mental health access to the world.
