School-Based Therapist – Free Weekly Licensure Supervision

LCSW, LCMHC, LMFT & Associates (LCSWA, LCMHCA, LMFTA)
Location: Franklinton, Youngsville & Louisburg, NC (Franklin County)

At a Glance

• Free weekly clinical supervision toward full licensure for associate-level clinicians, at no out-of-pocket cost
• Associate Clinician (LCMHCA, LCSWA, LMFTA): starting at $51,000
• Licensed Clinician (LCMHC, LCSW, LMFT): starting at $56,000
• Bonus eligible, with salary commensurate with education and experience

Associate-level clinicians, this one's for you. Paying for supervision toward full licensure can cost thousands of dollars. At The Stepping Stones Group, it's included. You'll get weekly supervision from supervisors who are clinicians first, building your hours toward full licensure without ever getting a bill for it.

The Impact You'll Make

You'll help students work through their emotions, overcome challenges and thrive in school. You'll partner with teachers and parents to find out what's blocking a child's success, and you'll build support for real students facing real challenges. Your clinical skill and warmth will change how students see themselves and how school communities approach mental wellness.

What You'll Do

• Support student well-being: individual and group counseling for emotional, behavioral and social challenges
• Build collaborative partnerships: work with educators, parents and administrators to support student success
• Design tailored programs: create meaningful, evidence-based support for diverse student needs
• Champion inclusion and belonging: promote a positive school climate where every student feels seen and supported

What You’ll Bring

• A current NC license: LCSW, LCMHC or LMFT, or an associate license (LCSWA, LCMHCA, LMFTA). Associates are strongly encouraged to apply, since supervision is on us.
• A master's degree in Social Work, Mental Health Counseling, Marriage & Family Therapy or a related field
• School-based mental health experience preferred, not required
• A real passion for student success

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Free weekly supervision toward full licensure: consistent, scheduled support as you grow from associate to fully licensed, at no cost to you
• Competitive salary and benefits, plus bonus eligibility
• Flexible pay options, because budgeting shouldn't be stressful
• Clinical leadership that shows up: supervisors who are clinicians first, so you'll never feel like you're in this alone
• Professional development and continuing education to keep growing your skills
• A team that gets it: colleagues who share your passion for student wellness
• Resources and support: clinical tools and training designed to set you up for success
