Job description

At Steadfast Health we're a on a mission to deliver hope, healing, and long-term health to those experiencing substance use disorder, through best-in-class addiction treatment and an unwavering belief that lasting recovery comes from partnering with our patients as respected equals in their care journey. We're a passionate team striving to raise the standard of compassionate care for our patients, and we know that to do that, we must care for our people first. We'd love to meet you and tell you about what we're building!

This Role

We are seeking a mission-driven Behavioral Health Supervisor to join our team, leading our clinicians and delivering whole-person, trauma-informed care to individuals with substance use disorders. At Steadfast Health, we believe that clinicians shouldn't have to choose between patient-centered work and their own mental and financial wellbeing. That's why we're doing things differently, through an integrated, evidence-based behavioral health model that deeply supports both patients and clinicians. For our clinicians, that means compassionate, expert clinical support, competitive compensation, caseloads that prioritize quality over quantity and preserve time for recovery, generous and flexible time off policies, and financial investment in your ongoing professional development.

Compensation

Base salary range: $90,000 - $105,000, based on licensure, supervisory credential, and years of relevant SUD experience.

Performance incentive: monthly incentive up to 5% of base salary, tied to clinic-level KPIs - This is a shared, clinic-level metric, rather then an individual productivity quota.

Location & Schedule

This is a 100% remote role with a schedule of Monday-Friday 8:30a-5p

Required Licensure & Supervisory Credential

Because this role provides board-approved clinical supervision to associate-level clinicians, candidates must hold both an active, independent North Carolina clinical license and the specific supervisory credential recognized by that license's board. You must hold at least one of the following:

• LCSW (NC) with a minimum of 2 years of post-licensure clinical practice and an MSW from a CSWE-accredited program, in good standing with the NC Social Work Certification and Licensure Board - eligible to supervise LCSW Associates (LCSWA).
• LCMHCS (NC) - the NC Board of Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselors' supervisor credential, required to supervise LCMHC Associates (LCMHCA). An LCMHC license alone, without the LCMHCS credential, does not qualify.
• LMFT (NC) with board-approved supervisor status (LMFT-S) - required to supervise LMFT Associates (LMFTA).

Your Responsibilities

Clinical Supervision & Leadership

• Provide board-approved clinical supervision to associate-level clinicians through weekly individual and group supervision, in compliance with all applicable NC board requirements.

• Maintain all required supervision documentation, contracts, and reporting per NC board standards.

Therapy & Patient Care

• Provide individual and group therapy for patients with substance use disorders, in-person and via telehealth, embodying the Steadfast patient-first ethos.
• Conduct comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments and develop individualized treatment plans, modeling a non-paternalistic, destigmatizing approach to care.
• Utilize evidence-based modalities - including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) - to support recovery.
• Collaborate with clinic-level team members, including Advanced Practice Providers, Medical Assistants, and Peer Recovery Specialists, to ensure integrated treatment.
• Support patients in crisis intervention and coordinate higher levels of care when needed.
• Maintain thorough, timely documentation in compliance with state, federal, and organizational guidelines.
• Pioneer innovative approaches to improving access and care for disadvantaged, marginalized populations.
• Educate patients and families on SUD, co-occurring disorders, and resources supporting sustained recovery.

• Minimum of 2 years of experience providing therapy to individuals with substance use disorders.
• LCAS or dual credentialing (mental health + addiction license) preferred.
