Camden Case Management provides personalized management services for individuals facing mental health and/or addiction challenges. Our team collaborates with clients at various stages of their healing journey, creating flexible, individualized reintegration plans within a comprehensive support structure.

Excellence in compassionate care.
Attuned support tailored to each client’s unique needs.
Collaboration with families, clinical providers, and support personnel.
We prioritize regular communication as a cornerstone for success and work alongside external clinical teams to ensure a cohesive approach to client reintegration and skill-building.
The Coach role is distinct from general mentoring as it focuses on supporting clients in overcoming specific challenges, such as ADHD, OCD, autism spectrum disorder, addiction recovery, or emotional regulation. Specialized Mentors work intensively in their area of expertise, providing targeted strategies while supporting the client’s overall development in life skills and reintegration goals.
Coaches are backed by a full support team, including two Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs) and the Camden Case Management leadership team. Weekly support meetings ensure consistent guidance, collaboration, and professional development for the mentor. This role is part-time, per-diem, and client-driven, meaning assignments are based on matching the mentor’s expertise to client needs.

Stay attuned to client progress in the specialized area and adapt approaches as necessary to ensure continuous improvement.
Utilize specialized expertise to design and implement individualized strategies for client progress.
Support clients in practicing life skills such as scheduling, budgeting, organizing, goal setting, and follow-through.

Provide phone support for clients outside of in-person sessions
Maintain clear, ongoing communication with the Case Management, Medical, and Clinical team to ensure consistent client care.
Document all sessions, interactions, and notable observations promptly and accurately.

We do our best to schedule everyone regularly, but it's important to understand that hours can fluctuate depending on things like client demand, coverage needs, or seasonal changes. There may be times when hours are reduced, so we encourage team members to have/ maintain other gainful employment.
