Intake Specialist

Weekly outpatient therapy isn't always enough, and a trip to the ER isn't the only answer.

If you are passionate about providing patients with exemplary care, while being sensitive to their individual psychiatric condition, you would be a great addition to our team.

Our dedicated operations teams work behind the scenes to bring our shared mission to life. Each department delivers their own set of strengths which empower our clinicians to focus on their expertise, and ultimately perform the meaningful work that we do.
