Mental Health Coach Supervisor

Clayful, an early-stage EdTech startup, is a mission-driven team of educators, coaches, and education tech experts dedicated to tackling the youth mental wellness crisis. Our goal: provide every 4-12th grade student in the U.S. with accessible, immediate, and transformative mental health support

Clayful is seeking licensed professionals in mental health related fields, social work or counseling to supervise and develop trained mental wellness coaches who support young people (grades 4–12) via chat-based and audio/video coaching sessions.

This is a part time 1099 contract position

Supervisors support during and after school hours (5am-10pm PT). We are looking for evening shift coverage 6-10pm PT and/or 2-6 pm PT.

Most supervisors work M-F 20-25 hours per week, but there is flexibility in your schedule.

30/hour with growth opportunity

You will manage multiple tech platforms to perform your job, so being tech savvy is essential.

You'll be the steady presence behind the coaches — the person they reach for when a conversation gets heavy, and the person who helps them get sharper over time. Coaching builds skills for right now and what's ahead; your job is to make sure every coach does that well, safely, and within scope.

To be explicit:
Clayful supervisors do not provide therapy or clinical treatment to students. You support coaches, safeguard the boundaries of the coaching model, and elevate when a situation calls for more than coaching can offer.

• Provide live support to coaches on shift — answer questions, provide coaching direction & consult in real time when a conversation escalates
• Review chat and session transcripts against Clayful's coach quality rubric and deliver feedback that's specific, direct, and usable
• Manage coaches alongside the Coach Success Lead — review time sheets and ensure coaches are following necessary policies & operations while maintaining excellent coach quality
• Surface patterns across sessions that should shape coach training, cheat sheets, and program content
• Send personalized follow up messages to Clayful users to drive engagement

Coach Supervisor Testimonial: I’m incredibly grateful for the people I’ve met here and for everything Clayful has taught me about leadership, humility, teamwork, and what it truly means to show up for young people. The support, compassion, and understanding I received from this community during some of the biggest and at times, heaviest moments of my life mean more to me than I can put into words.

• Licensed in a mental health related field, social work or counseling.
• 4 years experience in the mental health field — including supervising, mentoring, or coaching other practitioners

• A private, distraction-free workspace
• Must reside and remain in the U.S. for the duration of the contract

You give feedback that's honest and kind at the same time, and you hold a quality bar without making it punitive.

You stay calm when a coach doesn't, having the ability to handle crisis situations with ease.

You’re tech-savvy and a quick learner. You'll be supporting Coaches on multiple online platforms, so you need to be able to navigate them with confidence.

We’re an early-stage startup – things can change quickly! We need a Coach Supervisor who is flexible, embraces change & enjoys collaboration.

You’re organized and efficient. You know how to multitask successfully and prioritize your work.

You are mission-driven & care about young people’s mental health. You’re excited and inspired by working every day to bring mental wellness to students around the world.
