Family First Adolescent Services is excited to expand our virtual services alongside our established in-person PHP and residential programs. Founded in 2014, we take a sophisticated approach to supporting adolescents through a relational and developmental lens of curiosity and compassion, pairing warmth and attunement with high clinical standards.

We’re seeking a PSYPACT-authorized Licensed Psychologist to provide high-quality, evidence-based care to teens and families in our Virtual Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP).

A PSYPACT-licensed psychologist provides virtual adolescent Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) services, offering high-quality, evidence-based mental health care for teens (typically ages 12–18). Sessions are delivered via secure video conferencing and include group therapy, individual therapy, and family therapy.

Program key components include:

• Structure: Typically programming runs a minimum of 6 weeks, up to 12 weeks, 3 hours/day, 3-4 days/week, 3:30 - 6:30 pm (program schedules vary).
• Target population: Adolescents experiencing acute mental health challenges such as anxiety and depression (and related concerns).
• Therapeutic approach: Skill-building that may include coping skills, emotional regulation, mindfulness, and distress tolerance through group and individual therapy.
• Family involvement: Engagement varies, with family sessions 1-2x monthly and ongoing updates. Family is offered support groups from organization.

About the Role

You will be a core clinician in our Virtual IOP treatment team, delivering groups, individual therapy, and family therapy with a consistent weekly schedule.

Required recurring schedule:

• Group facilitation: 4 days/week, 3:30 PM – 6:30 PM (Eastern time zone). Additional hours for individual sessions, monthly family therapy, treatment planning, and documentation will be scheduled outside of group time.

What You’ll Do

• Facilitate virtual adolescent IOP groups (4 afternoons/week, 3:30–6:30 PM) using evidence-based, developmentally attuned methods
• Provide individual therapy sessions for adolescent clients (telehealth)
• Provide 1 - 2 x monthly family therapy sessions (telehealth), supporting attachment, communication, and systemic change
• Coordinate with psychiatry and the multidisciplinary team to support integrated care
• Complete timely clinical documentation and maintain compliance with telehealth and ethical standards
• Contribute to a culture of compassion, accountability, and clinical excellence

Who You Are

You’re a psychologist who:

• Enjoys working with adolescents and understands how development, relationships, and nervous system patterns shape behavior
• Can hold structure and warmth in group settings
• Brings a relational stance—curious, non-shaming, and grounded
• Is confident providing care via telehealth with strong presence and clinical judgment
• Values teamwork, communication, and consistent follow-through

Required Qualifications

• Doctoral degree in Psychology (PhD or PsyD) from an APA-accredited or equivalent program
• Active, unrestricted psychologist license in a U.S. state/jurisdiction
• PSYPACT eligibility required: must hold an active PSYPACT Authorization to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT) or be eligible and willing to obtain it promptly
• Typically includes licensure in a PSYPACT member state and meeting PSYPACT requirements (e.g., EPPP, no relevant disciplinary actions)
• Experience providing psychotherapy to adolescents (group and/or individual preferred)
• Strong telehealth clinical judgment, risk assessment skills, and documentation habits

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior experience in IOP/PHP, group therapy, or higher-acuity adolescent settings
• Training/exposure to CBT/DBT, ACT, trauma-informed care, attachment-informed approaches, and family systems work
• Comfort partnering with caregivers and building strong therapeutic alliances

What We Offer

• Mission-driven work in a growing virtual program, backed by established in-person PHP and residential services
• Supportive leadership and collaborative clinical culture
• Opportunity to help shape group curriculum and virtual program growth
• Competitive compensation (commensurate with experience and availability)
