Substance Use Counselor

Groups: recover together.

Overview

Overview

At Groups, we believe every person deserves compassionate, evidence-based care-no matter where they are in their recovery journey. As an established leader in addiction healthcare since 2014, we've helped hundreds of thousands of members access treatment that meets them where they are.

As a Counselor, you'll lead engaging group therapy sessions and work alongside an integrated care team committed to harm reduction, dignity, and member-centered care. We know recovery isn't one-size-fits-all, and we support members in making meaningful changes based on their individual goals.

If you believe in meeting people where they are, reducing harm, and helping members create meaningful change, Groups is the place for you.

Sign-On Bonus: $4,000
Schedule: Monday-Thursday, 9:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m.

Responsibilities

What You'll Do
  • Lead 3-4 one-hour, evidence-based group therapy sessions each day.
  • Facilitate meaningful discussions and adapt approved modalities to meet members where they are.
  • Collaborate with prescribers, care navigators, and recovery coaches to support whole-person care.
  • Monitor member progress and document outcomes.
  • Create a welcoming, harm-reduction-focused environment where members feel respected and supported.
  • Engage with the local community to promote access to compassionate addiction treatment.
Qualifications
  • An active license: LISW/LCSW, LPCC or LMFT
  • Minimum two years' leading groups in a SUD setting.
  • High comfort level with Technology: EMR, Telehealth software, Google products (Gmail, Google Docs/Sheets/Drive), mobile apps, etc.
  • Compassion, collaboration, commitment to quality care, and an investment in member success.
  • Other preferred backgrounds, experience, and skills include: mental health, social work, substance use disorder treatment, therapy, human services, social services, medication assisted treatment or MAT.
