About Blue Rose Consulting Group Inc.

At Blue Rose Consulting Group, our mission is simple: People First. Mission Always.

As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and SBA-Certified HUBZone company, we deliver innovative solutions and exceptional talent to federal agencies nationwide. We specialize in healthcare, behavioral health, technology, cybersecurity, intelligence, program management, and professional services, helping our clients solve complex challenges while making a meaningful impact.

This is a full-time, onsite leadership position providing behavioral health services to children and adolescents while also supporting the clinical team and day-to-day delivery of services.

This opportunity is particularly unique because California licensure is not required. Qualified clinicians who hold an active, unrestricted, independent license in another U.S. state or territory may be eligible.

• Apply trauma-informed and culturally responsive approaches when working with vulnerable populations
• Collaborate with program leadership and multidisciplinary partners to support continuity and quality of services
• Assist with clinical oversight, staff support, and operational needs
• Maintain professional, ethical, and program standards in accordance with applicable requirements
• Support additional behavioral health and program activities as required

Minimum Qualifications

Candidates must meet the following requirements:

• Active, unrestricted, independent clinical license in any U.S. state or territory, including LCSW, LMFT, LPC, LCPC, LMHC, Psychologist, or equivalent
• Minimum of 5 years of post-licensure clinical experience
• Minimum of 2 years of supervisory, lead, or management experience
• Demonstrated experience working with children and adolescents
• Experience supporting individuals impacted by trauma, crisis, and/or other vulnerable circumstances
• Strong clinical judgment, communication, leadership, and interpersonal skills
• Ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary and fast-paced environment
• Ability to work onsite in San Diego, California

What We Offer

• $5,000 Sign-On Bonus
• Competitive compensation
• Medical, dental, and vision coverage
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Professional and supportive team environment
• Opportunity to provide meaningful behavioral health services within a federal program

Bring Your License to San Diego

You have already put in the work to earn your independent clinical license. You do not need to start over in California to be considered for this position.

Whether you are already in Southern California or have been waiting for the right reason to make a move, we would love to talk with you.
