  • Conduct intakes and develop client-centered treatment plans

  • Deliver culturally responsive, trauma-informed care

  • Maintain timely documentation in our EHR

  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary care teams

Additional Benefits
  • 401(k) with 3% Company Match

  • Employee Assistance Program

  • $25,000 Company-Paid Life Insurance Policy

  • CEU reimbursement & ongoing professional development

  • Pathway to expand into full-time or supervisory roles if desired

✅ Qualifications
  • Active Virginia license: LPC, LPC-R, LCSW, or LMSW

  • Comfortable working independently in a remote environment

  • Experience serving children, teens, and families

  • Trauma-informed, culturally responsive approach

  • Bilingual (Spanish) strongly preferred

Looking for Meaningful Work Without Full-Time Burnout?

This is your opportunity to provide high-quality care, maintain flexibility, and be part of a mission-driven team — all on a schedule that works for you.

Apply today and help Virginia's youth thrive — one session at a time.
