Therapist – Full Time, Monday-Friday, on call required; Schedule Flexible, On-Site
The Center for Prevention of Abuse (CFPA) is seeking a passionate individual to join our team as a therapist at the main Peoria location. Our mission at CFPA is to help all people – women, men, and children, live free from violence and abuse, and our therapists are instrumental in bringing that mission to life.
Therapists provide crisis intervention and therapy services to adolescent and adult survivors of domestic violence, sexual abuse, sexual assault, and human trafficking. They provide client-centered and trauma-informed emotional and therapeutic support in order to promote self-reliance, positive self-esteem, and necessary life skills.
Therapists also provide medical and legal advocacy, facilitate support groups, occasionally present to the community regarding sexual assault, domestic violence, and human trafficking as well as attend required supervision by funders.
Prefer a master’s degree in human services field, or a bachelor’s degree in human services with three years of experience working with victims of sexual violence and three years of experience working with children. Must be passionate about CFPA’s mission, work well independently and as a team, and have exceptional soft skills.
At CFPA, we believe everyone deserves peace – every day, everywhere, any time – at home, in the workplace, at school, and out in the community.
A pioneer in providing services to victims of violence, CFPA has grown from a single rape crisis hotline that started in 1975 to a highly respected statewide leader in working to end abuse and break the cycle of generational violence. CFPA is the only agency in the entire state sanctioned to provide its combined services of Domestic Violence, Sexual Abuse/Assault, Human Trafficking, Adult Protective Services, and Prevention Education under one roof. CFPA operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, and all victim services are free and confidential.
CFPA is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex (including transgender status, sexual orientation, and pregnancy), national origin, age, or on an individual with a disability or class of individuals with disabilities in its policies or procedures.
