As a Clubhouse Counselor I, you provide individual and group support to adults with psychiatric challenges in an engaging and active Clubhouse setting. Clubhouse counselors work in partnership with Clubhouse members to improve life skills and self-determination within the established skill building units of the Club, as well as in social and community activities.

Clubhouse staff are generalists, meaning that anyone can help out any unit in the Clubhouse at any time. Staff should remain flexible, be aware of the larger picture of the needs of the Clubhouse, and make themselves available should anyone need support. The generalist role is one of the most important aspects of the Clubhouse ensuring that the Clubhouse remains focused on the big picture while assisting everyone working on their Individualized Action Plan goals.

What is a Clubhouse?

A Clubhouse is a day time operated community setting developed as a part of a proven international rehabilitation model for adults with psychiatric challenges. The Clubhouse model was created by individuals with psychiatric challenges for individuals with psychiatric challenges. Clubhouses provide an environment where Club members are not just welcome but belong and are needed to run the day to day operations of the Clubhouse community. Clubhouse staff and members work side-by-side throughout the work-ordered day to accomplish the goals of the Clubhouse community (such as cooking, cleaning, and administrative tasks) all while promoting independence and self-efficacy for individuals to accomplish their personal goals of recovery. Clubhouses work within its community to build partnerships and create opportunities for all.
