About the Role

As an Associate Therapist in a residential program for teens (12–17), you’ll build real depth quickly: individual therapy, family sessions, and daily groups, all within a structured milieu and alongside an experienced multidisciplinary team. This is one of the most immersive clinical training environments available—high-acuity clients, crisis work, and consistent supervision that accelerates your path to licensure.

What You'll Do

• Facilitate multiple therapy groups per week using DBT, CBT, ACT, and trauma-focused modalities—group therapy is a central function of this role
• Provide individual and family therapy sessions
• Spend time in the milieu building rapport, modeling interventions, and shaping treatment in real time
• Conduct biopsychosocial and risk assessments to inform individualized treatment plans
• Collaborate in daily and weekly multidisciplinary team (MDT) meetings
• Maintain timely, accurate clinical documentation
• Participate in rotating on-call schedule and provide crisis support as needed

Note: This is a full-time, in-person role. Schedule includes one weekend day (Sunday).
