In this episode of The PCBH Corner (originally recorded in August 2023), Drs. Beachy and Bauman dive into the hard truths of the Behavioral Health Consultant (BHC) role. They discuss why prospective BHCs need something akin to “informed consent” before stepping into this fast-paced, challenging position. From managing last-minute warm handoffs to thriving as a generalist in a high-demand environment, this conversation lays it all on the table to help you assess whether this role is the right fit.
The episode also highlights the importance of understanding an organization's unique non-negotiables—something every applicant should investigate before applying. Whether you’re considering a career as a BHC or mentoring someone who is, this candid discussion is a must-listen.
