Immediate Opening: Mental Health Therapist
A Practice Built for Therapists Who Want to Focus on Therapy, Not Running a Business
Center for Anxiety and Behavior Management (CABM) is a growing private practice in Chester, NJ focused on providing high-quality, evidence-based treatment to children, adolescents, adults, and families.
We've intentionally built a practice that allows clinicians to spend their time where it matters most: helping clients. We handle much of the behind-the-scenes work involved in operating a private practice including marketing, scheduling, billing, technology, office operations, and administrative support so that our clinicians can focus on providing excellent care, continuing to grow professionally, and maintaining a life outside of work.
CABM continues to experience strong demand for services, and we are actively seeking additional clinicians to help meet the needs of our growing client base. We are currently seeking licensed therapists with experience in, or a strong interest in developing skills in, evidence-based treatments who are looking for a supportive, long-term professional home.
We know many therapists didn't enter this field because they wanted to market themselves, manage technology, coordinate scheduling, or run a business. They entered this field because they wanted to help people.

We believe clinicians are best able to provide exceptional care when they are supported by strong administrative systems, quality resources, ongoing professional development, and a practice culture that respects both clinical excellence and life outside of work.
Why Clinicians Appreciate This Model:
Many private practices expect clinicians to manage some combination of marketing, scheduling, billing, credentialing, technology, office operations, or other business responsibilities in addition to providing therapy.
At CABM, we've intentionally built systems and support staff to handle much of that work so our clinicians can focus on clinical care, professional growth, and maintaining healthy boundaries outside of work.
We recognize that practices offering both meaningful clinical work and substantial administrative support can be difficult to find. Our goal is to allow clinicians to focus on what they were trained to do and what many enjoy most: helping clients.
When evaluating opportunities, we encourage clinicians to consider not only the position itself, but also the support, resources, and infrastructure available to help them succeed. Many of the things our clinicians never have to think about are things someone at CABM is handling behind the scenes every day.
Here are what some of our clinicians have to say:
“I . . . have been so happy with my decision to transition to private practice, but particularly with this team. I have been supported in many ways to overcome challenges with my cases and have access to a lot of supervision. Becoming a part of this team requires the desire to learn and continue to grow as a clinician. This practice provides many resources and tools that help their clinicians in the process of advancing their knowledge. Team members are available and offer their time to discuss or debrief cases. The team also provides a sense of community within the office, even if we do not get a chance to all see each other often. Our office manager does a great job of managing our schedules and making sure we always have clients scheduled or intakes. She finds clients that fit our specialty and style, which increases the likelihood of therapeutic relationships to work. The priority of this practice is quality care to its clients, which is different from places that prioritize numbers and productivity. This practice also prioritizes the mental health of its clinicians, with boundaries in place to be able to disconnect when one is out of the office. The director makes it a point to respect our lives outside of the office, as well as maintaining the positive culture within the office.”
“Working at CABM for almost four years has been a great experience for me. I left a job working in community mental health to make the jump to the private practice world and I can honestly say that I felt at home immediately. I value being part of a team that gets along so well and we have just that. We all have our own specialties and are always willing to consult with one another for the betterment of our clients. Our contact with clients outside of sessions is minimal, which allows for us to focus on our life and families. Our office manager is a great asset since she handles the phone calls, emails, scheduling, billing, etc. I highly recommend working at CABM and would love to have more amazing clinicians join our mighty team.”
“Working at CABM has been such an amazing experience. The flexibility of scheduling allows for a work-life balance that I’m not sure could be found anywhere else, especially in the mental health field. This has been great for preventing high stress and burnout. The team was welcoming and supportive from the start and I’ve created some of my best friendships while working here. Clinical consultation and support are always available which has been really helpful in growing as a clinician and becoming more confident doing this work. Dr. Faraci works very hard as our director to ensure we all feel appreciated and happy at CABM and she is always open and willing to hear our thoughts.”
