A Place to Turn is a growing, holistic group practice rooted in mind-body-spirit integration . We provide curated client matches, strong clinical support, and a structured environment where associate therapists can truly grow.
We’re looking for clinicians who want more than just a job —those seeking long-term development, mentorship, and a collaborative team .

• Support clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relational challenges
• Build a caseload (goal: 20+ clients/week within 6 months )
• Complete timely, high-quality clinical documentation
• Participate in weekly supervision (group + triadic as needed)
• Collaborate with a supportive clinical team

What We Offer

• Steady client referrals (we help fill your caseload)
• Billing, credentialing, and admin assistance
• Beautiful office space + hybrid flexibility
• Structured supervision and training

  • Clinical supervision (group and triadic)
  • Required meetings and administrative tasks

• Performance-based growth opportunity:
  • Associates who maintain 20+ client hours/week for 3 consecutive months may be eligible for a $5/hour increase
• All required work time is compensated in alignment with California employment law

Why You’ll Love This Job

• You don’t have to build your practice alone — we provide referrals and aligned client matches

Expectations
