Child and Adolescent Therapist

Description

Where behavioral health behaves differently.

At Family Care Center, we are on a mission to transform lives by elevating behavioral health care. Our journey began in 2016 when two U.S. Army Veterans founded Family Care Center to help service members, Veterans and their families. We continue that tradition today, caring for people of all ages across a broad range of conditions with nearly 30 outpatient clinics in communities across Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Tennessee and Texas.

If you’d like to work for one of the nation's fastest-growing behavioral health providers while collaborating with a multidisciplinary team to make a positive impact on the well-being of your local community, we look forward to hearing from you.
