Organization: New Phase Navigation
Location: Denver, CO/ Remote
Salary: $28-33 per hour
Position Description:
At New Phase Navigation, we believe that mind, care, and community are all equally important in navigating changes in our lives. As a Mental Health-Focused Support Companion, you are an essential member of the Navigation Team, providing direct companionship to individuals facing mental health-related challenges. Your role is grounded in empathy, creativity, and therapeutic presence—not as a formal clinician, but as someone trained to support clients in implementing coping strategies and tackling executive dysfunction.
This role takes place both in clients’ homes and in the community (e.g. coffee shops, libraries, parks, etc…), based on client preference and goals. You’ll also assist clients in developing adaptive tools like charts, reminder boards, visual schedules, or customized planning systems to support independence and structure.
Clients you support may experience anxiety, depression, personality-disorders, trauma-related symptoms, or neurodivergence that makes completing daily tasks difficult. You are there to help bridge the gap between intention and action—while creating space for growth, healing, and autonomy.
