Therapist II

You've developed your clinical foundation and are ready for the next step. The Therapist II role is designed for clinicians who have established basic clinical competence and are building confidence managing moderate clinical presentations independently. You'll provide therapy to individuals, couples, and groups while continuing to refine your clinical identity, deepen your expertise, and expand your impact. This role offers the balance of autonomy and support – allowing you to practice independently while still benefiting from consultation, supervision, and a collaborative team environment.
