Are you passionate about helping children and families heal from trauma? The Western Kansas Child Advocacy Center is seeking a dedicated and compassionate Mental Health Therapist to join our team and play a vital role in transforming the lives of children affected by abuse.
At WKCAC, we don’t just provide therapy, we create a safe space for healing and resilience. Our therapists have the unique opportunity to provide long-term trauma-focused care, working alongside a highly trained team to make a real and lasting impact in Western Kansas.
We understand that working in trauma therapy is both intense and deeply rewarding, which is why we prioritize support for our therapists through:
Competitive Benefits Package – Including PTO accumulation, paid holidays off, and a personal day to prioritize your well-being.
Work-Life Balance – Monday-Friday, 8 AM - 5 PM schedule with no on-call requirements so you can recharge and stay at your best.
Financial Security & Growth – 401(k) plan, specialized training, and a student loan forgiveness program through HRSA (National Health Service Corps).
Professional Support & Development – We offer in-house supervision (depending on licensure), specialized trauma-focused and play therapy training, more modality training, and ongoing professional development to help you grow in your career.
Agency Equipment– We provide an agency car, phone, and laptop, so you have the resources you need to serve children and families effectively.
Wellness Matters – In-house self-care resources to help you navigate the emotional challenges of this critical work.
Your Role:
Provide trauma-focused mental health therapy to children and families impacted by abuse.
Work as part of a multi-disciplinary team to offer comprehensive care and support.
Help change the trajectory of a child’s life by fostering healing, resilience, and hope.
