Mental Health Therapist

Mental Health Therapist - Full-Time (In-Person) Inner Balance Counseling | Mesa OR Tempe, AZ Are you on the hunt for a job where the grass is truly greener? A job you actually enjoy with reasonable expectations? A place where you're respected, cared for, and supported-not just with kind words but with real investment in your growth? Look no further-this could be the home you've been looking for. Inner Balance Counseling is a trauma-informed counseling community providing outpatient mental health services to adults. We're seeking a full-time, in-person therapist who wants a long-term professional home-that won't be a side gig, and not supplemental employment. Our goal is to ensure our therapists are not just trauma-aware, but truly trauma-informed and fully supported in their work. This role requires a consistent, full clinical caseload and regular on-site presence. It's best suited for clinicians who thrive on collaboration, value accountability, and are excited about professional growth within a supportive, structured practice. If you prefer to clock in and out without a word, or you find 25 clients overwhelming, we might not be the right fit. But if you're eager to grow and find a home, we're the place for you.
