About Us:
We are seeking a compassionate, empathetic, and trauma-informed psychotherapist to join our growing team. The ideal candidate has experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and is passionate about supporting clients who have experienced childhood trauma, interpersonal violence, family conflict, grief and loss, substance use disorders, systemic oppression, and other adverse life experiences.
Because many of the individuals and families we serve include children and adolescents, we are especially seeking clinicians who enjoy working with youth and are committed to supporting their emotional, behavioral, and developmental growth. While clinicians will also have opportunities to work with adults, applicants should be enthusiastic about serving children, adolescents, and families as a meaningful part of their caseload.
As a member of our team, you will provide culturally responsive, evidence-based psychotherapy while collaborating with other professionals to support the emotional well-being of the individuals and families we serve.
Bilingual (English/Spanish) clinicians are strongly encouraged to apply.
