As an Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant, you will be trained to provide coaching and support to classroom teachers and administrative staff to prevent very young children from being expelled from preschool and early learning. In your assigned centers, you will provide consultation, early intervention and prevention services, refer individual children and families for additional services including individual therapy, and act as a resource to help teachers and parents manage challenging child behaviors!
