Marriage and Family Therapist

We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes summary, qualifications, duties, work schedule, telework, virtual, etc. We need to use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections that have real specific content. We have summary (could be About the role). We have Qualifications (basic requirements, grade determinations, KSAs). We have Duties (Responsibilities). We have Work Schedule (Schedule). We have Telework (maybe part of Schedule or Benefits? It's a work arrangement; could be under Schedule or maybe Benefits? The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Telework is mentioned: "Telework: Available - Ad-Hoc as determined by the agency policy". That's specific content about telework. Could be placed under a Benefits section? But Benefits section is for benefits like health insurance etc. Not present. Telework could be under Schedule or a separate section like Work Arrangements, but not in allowed headings. Allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Telework could fit under Schedule (work schedule includes telework). Or could be under Benefits? Probably Schedule. We also have Physical Requirements (maybe under Requirements? Could be under Requirements). The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use Requirements heading to include basic requirements, physical requirements, grade determinations, etc. Qualifications heading could be separate? But we have both Requirements and Qualifications as allowed headings. The posting has "Qualifications" section with basic requirements, grade determinations, KSAs. Also "Physical Requirements". Could combine under Requirements. But we also have "Qualifications" heading allowed; we could put the qualification details under Qualifications heading. The Requirements heading could be for things like citizenship, education, licensure, physical requirements? Might be overlapping. Better to follow typical structure: About the role (summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (basic requirements, physical requirements), Qualifications (grade determinations, KSAs), Skills (maybe KSAs?), Benefits (none), Pay (none), Schedule (work schedule, telework). We must not create sections with placeholder text. So we need to ensure each section has real content. We have no explicit Pay or Benefits info. So we should omit those sections. We have Schedule: "Work Schedule: Monday through Friday - 8:00am to 4:30pm" and Telework info. So we can put under Schedule. We have Skills: The KSAs include skill to independently assess, ability to provide counseling, ability to establish relationships, knowledge of statutes, ability to assist with informed decisions, ability to provide orientation/training/consultation, skill in use of computer software. Those are skills. Could put under Skills heading. We have Requirements: Could include citizenship, education, licensure, grade determinations (GS-11), experience, etc. Also physical requirements. We have Qualifications: Might be redundant. But we can treat Qualifications as the KSAs? Actually the posting has "Qualifications" heading with basic requirements etc. Then later "Grade Determinations" and "Demonstrated KSAs". So we could put basic requirements under Requirements, and grade determinations/KSAs under Qualifications or Skills. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's decide: - About the role: summary paragraph. - Responsibilities: duties list. - Requirements: citizenship, education, licensure, physical requirements, experience (post-master's year) maybe. - Qualifications: grade determinations (GS-11) and maybe the alternative doctoral degree substitution. - Skills: KSAs (skill to independently assess, ability to provide counseling, ability to establish relationships, knowledge of statutes, ability to assist with informed decisions, ability to provide orientation/training/consultation, skill in use of computer software). - Schedule: work schedule and telework. We must not repeat job title. No markdown. We need to use

for each section heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. Do not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. Let's extract details. Summary: "Provides mental health services and case management services or Veterans with mental health diagnoses as an integral part of the outpatient Behavioral Health Interdisciplinary Program (BHIP) team. As a member of a Behavioral Health Interdisciplinary Program team (BHIP) - conducts psychosocial assessments - provide crisis intervention - clinical case management - and evidence-based psychotherapy - Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) - Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) etc." We'll keep that as prose. Responsibilities (Duties): list bullet points: - Independently conducts assessments - evaluating the psychosocial functioning and needs of patients and their families to formulate and implement a treatment plan - identifying needs - strengths and coping skills in collaboration with the patient and family as appropriate - Provides clinical case management services to Veterans - The incumbent coordinates care and assures that Veterans receive needed services to increase functionality - independence - and quality of life - Sets clinical care goals in collaboration with the patient - monitors progress toward goals - and works to achieve outcomes - including reduced hospitalizations - Recognizes complex situations that impact patient care and intervenes - using sound judgment and appropriate resources - Attends appropriate team meetings (Behavioral Health Interdisciplinary Programs huddles and meetings - Behavioral Health/Recovery Services - social work etc.) and works closely with patients' providers and other team members to effectively coordinate care - Establishes collaborative relationships with mental health providers particularly - as well as other team members and staff outside the department in order to more effectively coordinate patients' care - Assesses caregiver burden and makes plan to sensitively address caregiver burden - Establishes and maintains therapeutic relationships with Veterans and families from diverse backgrounds - Provides education and consultation to staff - students - patients - and families regarding programs and serves as a point of contact for the community for these programs - Works with team to meet goals and performance measures within program - including Noninstitutional Care measures - Participates in performance improvement activities and tracks and trends issues as part of performance improvement plan - Communicates effectively - both orally and in writing - with people from varied backgrounds - Provides supervision to lower graded therapists requiring clinical supervision We need to keep the exact phrasing? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the text as is, maybe split into list items but keep the content. We can break each sentence into separate

• . Ensure we don't lose any detail. Requirements: Basic Requirements: - United States Citizenship: Non-citizens may only be appointed when it is not possible to recruit qualified citizens in accordance with VA Policy - Education: Candidates must meet one of the following: * Hold a master's degree or doctoral degree in marriage and family therapy from a program approved by COAMFTE * Hold a master's degree or doctoral degree in marriage and family therapy from a MFT program from a regionally accredited institution * Hold a master's degree or doctoral degree in a comparable mental health degree (Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor - Social Work - Psychiatric Nursing - Psychology - and Psychiatry) that meets the current VA qualification standard of that profession - Licensure: Must hold full - current - and unrestricted Marriage and Family Therapy license to independently practice marriage and family therapy in a state - May qualify based on being covered by the Grandfathering Provision as described in the VA Qualification Standard for this occupation (only applicable to current VHA employees who are in this occupation and meet the criteria) - Grade Determinations: Marriage and Family Therapist - GS-11 (Full Performance Level) Experience - Education and Licensure * In addition to the basic requirements - the GS-11 full performance level requires completion of a minimum of one year of post-master's degree experience in the field of marriage and family therapy work (VA or non-VA experience) and licensure in a State at the independent practice level * In addition - the candidate must demonstrate the KSAs in subparagraph below * OR - In addition to the basic requirements - a doctoral degree in marriage and family therapy or comparable degree in mental health that meets the current VA qualification standard of that profession (Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor - Social Work - Psychiatric Nursing - Psychology - and Psychiatry) may be substituted for the required one year of marriage and family therapy experience in a clinical setting * AND the candidate must be licensed to practice at the independent practice level and they must demonstrate the following KSA - Physical Requirements: The incumbent may be asked to preform physical tasks requiring standing - bending - stooping - kneeling - climbing stairs - and lifting up to 25 lbs. We need to keep the exact phrasing; note there is a typo "preform". Keep as is. Qualifications: Could be the grade determinations and KSAs? But we already used grade determinations under Requirements. Maybe better to put grade determinations under Qualifications, and KSAs under Skills. Let's read: The posting has "Qualifications" heading then "Basic Requirements". Then "Grade Determinations". Then "Demonstrated KSAs". So we could treat: - Requirements: Basic Requirements (citizenship, education, licensure, grandfathering, physical requirements) - Qualifications: Grade Determinations (GS-11 requirements, experience, alternative doctoral degree substitution) - Skills: Demonstrated KSAs list. That seems logical. Thus: Requirements section: include citizenship, education, licensure, grandfathering provision, physical requirements. Qualifications section: include grade determinations (GS-11) details: experience requirement, alternative doctoral degree substitution, licensure requirement, demonstration of KSAs (maybe mention must demonstrate KSAs). But we will put KSAs under Skills separately, so Qualifications section will mention the experience and education alternatives. Skills section: list the KSAs. Schedule section: work schedule and telework. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. Let's craft. We'll start with

  About the role

  then

  with summary. Then

  Responsibilities

  then
  • each duty. Then

    Requirements

    then
    • for each bullet. Then

      Qualifications

      then
      • for grade determinations details. Then

        Skills

        then
        • for each KSA. Then

          Schedule

          then

          for work schedule and telework. Make sure not to include empty sections. Check for any duplicated lines: we need to avoid repeating same content. Let's extract each piece precisely. Summary text: "Provides mental health services and case management services or Veterans with mental health diagnoses as an integral part of the outpatient Behavioral Health Interdisciplinary Program (BHIP) team. As a member of a Behavioral Health Interdisciplinary Program team (BHIP) - conducts psychosocial assessments - provide crisis intervention - clinical case management - and evidence-based psychotherapy - Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) - Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) etc." Note there is a minor grammar: "services or Veterans" maybe should be "services to Veterans". We'll keep as given. Now Responsibilities list: We need to copy each bullet exactly as in the posting. The duties list after "Duties Duties and responsibilities include but are not limited to:" then each bullet starts with a dash? Actually the text: "Independently conducts assessments - evaluating the psychosocial functioning and needs of patients and their families to formulate and implement a treatment plan - identifying needs - strengths and coping skills in collaboration with the patient and family as appropriate". That's one long sentence with dashes. We'll keep as one
