About Realign Counseling

At Realign Counseling, we believe healing happens through community, connection, and belonging—not through the individualistic lens that has shaped many Western models of care—and we intentionally seek clinicians with diverse identities, cultural backgrounds, lived experiences, and approaches to care. Our mission is to provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and holistic mental health care that honors the whole person—mind, body, spirit, and community.

We are committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace where clinicians from all backgrounds are valued and empowered. We actively work toward decolonizing mental health care by challenging traditional systems that have historically excluded marginalized communities and by integrating healing modalities that respect diverse cultural traditions and ways of knowing.

We are seeking a Resident in Counseling or Licensed Professional Counselor who is excited to be part of something bigger than themselves—a collaborative team dedicated to transforming the mental health landscape through connection, innovation, and authentic healing.

Why Join Realign?

At Realign, you're not just joining a practice—you're joining a movement. We believe the future of mental health care is collaborative, culturally responsive, holistic, and community-centered. We are building a team of clinicians who want to create meaningful change, support one another, and help clients heal in ways that honor their whole selves.

If you're looking for a workplace where your voice matters, your growth is supported, and your work contributes to a larger mission, we'd love to meet you.
