About Here Now Health:

Here Now Health is the first virtual healthcare company specifically built for children and families impacted by the child welfare system. We deliver child welfare-informed, high-touch care to Medicaid-covered youth navigating foster care, adoption, kinship placements, and juvenile justice. Our model prioritizes consistency, trust, and accessibility in systems where they are too often missing.

Role Summary

As a Virtual Licensed Therapist with Here Now Health, you will provide compassionate, trauma-informed mental health care to Medicaid-covered youth and families impacted by foster care and related systems. You will support clients navigating instability, system involvement, and complex trauma, often across multiple placements or life transitions.

Our care model centers around relational continuity, caregiver support, and evidence-informed clinical practice. You will join a collaborative, mission-driven team focused on transforming how care is delivered to system-impacted youth.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide virtual one-on-one therapy to youth and caregivers using evidence-informed, trauma-focused modalities
• Conduct clinical assessments and develop collaborative, measurement-based care plans
• Build relational continuity across transitions, supporting clients through placement or life changes
• Collaborate with non-clinical Care Advocates to ensure clients can access needed services and supports
• Offer caregiver support sessions to improve family stability and outcomes
• Maintain thorough and timely clinical documentation aligned with Medicaid and telehealth standards
• Attend weekly supervision, team meetings, and required trainings
• Provide support during moments of escalation or crisis in alignment with trauma-informed care practices
• Engage in peer consultation and cross-functional collaboration with clinicians and care team members
  

What Sets This Role Apart

• Low caseloads designed to prioritize depth, trust, and sustained engagement
• The opportunity to serve youth often excluded from traditional care models, including those without stable placements or consistent caregivers
• A team culture where lived experience in foster care, kinship care, or system involvement is valued and welcomed
• An integrated care model connecting therapy with caregiver support, care coordination, and advocacy

• Technical & Managed Care: Experience with telehealth platforms and Medicaid clinical documentation standards.
