Job description

You run the clinical floor at Old Oaks Ranch: the staff, the schedule, the charts and the standard of the work. It is a leadership job with a caseload attached — you would still be in group, and still carrying the regulatory readiness of the campus.

Schedule

• Full time, on site at Old Oaks Ranch in Wimberley.
• A flexible schedule that can include evenings, weekends and on-call.
• Some travel to other Nova locations in Texas.

What you will do

• Supervise, mentor and support the clinical and residential staff.
• Lead daily team meetings and oversee program operations.
• Facilitate group and individual counseling sessions yourself.
• Manage assessments, treatment plans and discharge coordination.
• Audit charts and hold documentation compliance.
• Maintain staff schedules and make sure the campus is covered.
• Drive quality improvement and keep the campus ready for a regulator.

Required

• A master’s-level clinical license in good standing — LPC, LCSW, LMFT or equivalent.
• Two or more years supervising or running operations in behavioral health, residential treatment or healthcare.
• A bachelor’s or master’s degree in behavioral health or business administration.
• Experience with EHR systems.
• Working knowledge of substance use disorders, co-occurring conditions and 12-step models.

Preferred

• PhD or PsyD.
• Lightning Step specifically, among EHR systems.

Benefits

• Health, dental, vision and life cover.
• Generous paid time off.
• Merit-based raises and a route to promotion, reviewed on a schedule rather than on request.
• Supervision hours and professional development toward the next clinical step.
• A Hill Country campus rather than a clinical corridor — a short drive from Austin or San Marcos.
