Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Job DescriptionSmall-Town Roots, Big Impact: LCSW/LPC Behavioral Health | Knoxville, TN Area\nSome jobs ask you to choose between meaningful work and a manageable schedule. This one doesn't make you pick.\nIf you're an LCSW or LPC who wants real clinical impact without sacrificing your evenings and weekends, this rural FQHC near Knoxville has a seat waiting for you on an established, supportive behavioral health team.\n\nWhy This Role Stands Out\nMonday through Friday, 7:30a to 5:30p. No call. No weekends. Your calendar actually belongs to you.\nYou'll work out of a single, dedicated office using NextGen EMR, providing in-person care alongside a team that already has psychiatric backup and admin support in place. No juggling multiple sites and no reinventing the wheel on day one.\nThere's also genuine room to grow. This practice is looking to expand its substance abuse treatment program and wants a clinician who's ready to help shape that.\n\nThe Culture Piece\nThis is a mission-driven, rural FQHC where team fit matters just as much as clinical skill. If you're looking for a place where your work is felt by the community you serve (not just documented in a chart) this could be it.\n\nCompensation and Benefits\n\n Base salary: $75,000 to $86,000, based on licensure and experience\n Annual bonus eligibility, with a raise review at your 6 month mark\n Relocation assistance available\n Tiered medical contribution, plus dental and vision options\n PTO accrual and 10 paid holidays\n 2 to 3 paid CME days per year plus a $1,000 CME allowance\n Student loan repayment eligibility through both the State of Tennessee and HRSA programs\n\n\nWhat You'll Need\n\n Master's degree in Social Work (LCSW) or Counseling (LPC)\n Active or in-process LCSW/LPC licensure in Tennessee\n Open to all experience levels, though 3+ years is preferred\n Adult outpatient therapy experience\n Substance abuse treatment experience is a must\n A genuine comfort with and commitment to rural, mission-driven work\n\n\nLife Near Knoxville\nTrade the traffic for trailheads. This rural community puts you close to state park hiking and river activities, with an affordable cost of living, low crime and four distinct seasons. Knoxville and the rest of Tennessee are still an easy drive away when you want the city for a day.\nIf this sounds like the kind of role where you can build a career and an actual life at the same time, let's talk.
