You will oversee the clinic's performance across four pillars: clinical excellence, client experience, employee experience, and business health. This role is ideal for a strong clinical leader who can build an exceptional team, create a values-driven culture, and deliver meaningful results for adolescents and families.

- Documentation quality, regulatory compliance, accreditation readiness, and risk management
- Strong partnerships with families, providers, and community referral sources
- Continuous improvement of programming, systems, and clinic performance
How We Lead
We believe great leadership is people-first, clear, and accountable. Our leaders practice radical candor, provide consistent feedback, address performance directly, and create an environment where people feel supported and challenged to grow.
Our values guide how we work: Dare to Grow. Contribute to the Whole. Choose Kindness. Spread Optimism. Deliver Results.
What We're Looking For
- Independently licensed behavioral health professional in North Carolina, such as an LCMHC, LCSW, LMFT, or equivalent
- Master's degree in a related clinical field
- 5+ years of behavioral health experience
- 2+ years of clinical or operational leadership experience
- Experience leading multidisciplinary teams and managing performance
- Strong knowledge of clinical quality, compliance, and behavioral health operations
- Adolescent PHP/IOP experience strongly preferred
- Program launch or expansion experience preferred
- Qualified Supervisor status preferred
- Ability to travel occasionally to Florida for company-sponsored training
The full-time W-2 position is expected to begin in January 2027 . Fractional or contract work may be available beforehand to support launch planning, program development, recruitment, and training.
AWA provides specialized PHP and IOP mental health services for adolescents and families. We are building thoughtful, high-performing programs where exceptional care and exceptional workplace culture go hand in hand.
