About the job

Mental Health Technician (MHT) – Behavioral Health Team Member

Step into a role where your work truly matters every single day. As a Mental Health Technician (MHT) at Brentwood, you’ll be a vital part of a compassionate behavioral health team - supporting patients through some of their most important moments while keeping the clinic running smoothly behind the scenes.

This is a hands-on, high-impact position that blends direct patient care with essential front office coordination , giving you a dynamic workday where no two moments are the same.

What You’ll Do (and Why It Matters)

You’ll be the steady presence patients rely on and the organized force that keeps care moving forward. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Welcoming and rooming patients with professionalism and empathy
  • Taking and recording vital signs to support clinical decision-making
  • Managing medication refill requests that help patients stay on track with treatment
  • Handling patient registration and appointment scheduling to ensure seamless access to care
  • Answering and triaging office phone calls with urgency and care

In this role, you’re not just completing tasks - you’re helping remove barriers to care, improving patient experiences, and supporting a team that changes lives every day.

What Makes This Role Exciting

If you thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment , this position offers constant engagement and purpose. You’ll build valuable healthcare skills, gain exposure to behavioral health operations, and develop experience that can launch or grow a career in healthcare, nursing, social work, or mental health services.

What We’re Looking For

  • High School Diploma or GED and valid driver's license required
  • Ability to multitask, stay organized, and remain calm under pressure
  • A compassionate, patient-first mindset

Preferred (but not required)

  • Social work classes or prior mental health experience

If you’re looking for more than just a job - and want a role where your presence truly supports healing, stability, and access to care - this is your opportunity to make a difference from day one.
