Job description

Center for Teens

Center for Teens is an exciting new outpatient facility providing comprehensive mental health treatment exclusively for adolescents. It is our mission to address the rapidly growing adolescent mental health crisis with comprehensive, evidence –based treatment delivered by talented, highly‑skilled, well‑trained, compassionate therapists who care about adolescent mental health care as much as we do. We serve our clients with a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), and outpatient therapy utilizing evidence‑based practices including CBT, DBT and expressive therapies, providing measurement‑based care, and ensuring services are tailored to meet each individual client’s needs.
