The Integrated Care Therapy position offers a $2,500 signing bonus, paid in two installments at 6 months and 1 year

Who We Are

Pawnee Mental Health is a mission-driven, non-profit Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) serving 10 counties across North-Central Kansas. We provide comprehensive behavioral health services to individuals and families in underserved communities, and we are actively seeking dedicated, compassionate therapists who want their work to truly matter.

We are proud of our collaborative, team-oriented culture where every role plays a part in helping clients build healthier, more stable lives.

Why Our Therapists Matter

As an Integrated Care Therapist, you bring mental health care directly to clients who might otherwise struggle to access it. You will work with children experiencing Severe Emotional Disturbance (SED) and adults living with Severe and Persistent Mental Illness (SPMI), often providing services in clients’ homes or community settings.

This role removes barriers, builds trust, and helps people make meaningful progress in their daily lives. If you are passionate about community-based care and value relationships just as much as clinical outcomes, this role offers purpose and impact.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Provide trauma-informed therapy services in clients’ homes and community settings
• Develop and maintain individualized treatment plans that align with client goals
• Educate and support clients and families by connecting them to mental health resources
• Coordinate care with community agencies and interdisciplinary treatment teams
• Maintain licensure requirements through ongoing training and supervision
• Travel within the community to deliver services, with mileage and time fully compensated

• $2,500 signing bonus, paid in two installments at 6 months and 1 year
  
• Up to $9,000 annually in bonus pay by meeting client care expectations and facilitating therapy groups
  
• Total compensation package exceeding $100,000, including salary, bonus potential, and benefits like:
  

Medical and Vision Insurance through BCBS or Aetna, with single coverage typically $50 to $100 per month

Dental Insurance, 100 percent employer-paid

KPERS Retirement with a lifetime pension program

Life Insurance up to 150 percent of annual salary and long-term disability at no cost

Eight paid holidays each year

Generous PTO starting at 15 days per year and increasing to 24 days after your first anniversary

Paid Medical Leave with 40 hours available immediately upon hire

Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

Optional supplemental benefits including additional life insurance, short-term disability, critical illness, hospital indemnity, and ambulance transportation

Who We’re Looking For

We are seeking licensed clinicians who are committed to ethical, compassionate, and community-centered care. This role is well-suited for LPCs, LSCSWs, and LMFTs who want to work directly with clients in real-world settings and be part of a supportive clinical team.

Why Pawnee Mental Health

At Pawnee, therapists are supported, respected, and encouraged to grow. You will receive strong clinical supervision, opportunities for advancement, and the chance to do meaningful work every day. Your voice matters here, and so does your well-being.

If you are looking for a counseling role that combines purpose, flexibility, strong compensation, and real community impact, we would love to hear from you.
