For Agencies and Programs

When You Have the Clients and Not the Clinician

Tatiana is building Cornerstone around groups. If your program needs a licensed clinician to lead groups, she can contract with you to do it. She has experience serving seniors, transitional aged youth, men, women, marginalized populations, and people in all stages of addiction recovery, and she is bilingual in English and Spanish.

Before exploring a facilitation contract, define what the group is intended to do and who it is intended to serve. Education, support, and clinical treatment can involve different expectations, so the name of the group is not enough to establish its scope. Describe the population, the reason for the request, and the role you want a clinician to fill. Ask what would need to be clarified before participants are invited. A preliminary conversation should use general program information rather than individual records or personal histories. The proposed arrangement needs to fit both the agency's responsibilities and the clinician's professional role.

Practical questions matter as much as the topic. Who explains the group to prospective participants? What happens if someone needs a different level of support? How are attendance, communication, and responsibilities handled? These are items to resolve in the actual agreement, not procedures to assume from a website description. Ask about the proposed format, availability, and boundaries before relying on a particular schedule or service. A facilitation contract does not automatically settle billing, record ownership, referrals, or crisis responsibilities. Naming those questions early allows the parties to discuss a workable arrangement without promising services or access that have not yet been agreed upon.

Questions for Your Program

What You Should Settle First

Who holds the clinical record? Who bills, if anyone? Who handles referrals, attendance reports, and any required documentation? Answering these early keeps the contract simple and keeps clients protected.
