Advanced Kid and Family Therapist

We’re looking for a therapist to join our team full-time in October 2026! We are excited to bring on someone passionate about childhood work and parent/family involvement. Our ideal candidate is someone who loves working with young children and feels equally comfortable working with parents and families. Data shows that real progress happens when families are part of the process. This is not a drop-off model—parents are involved in everything we do.This person should be comfortable conceptualizing treatment as a family process and flexible and willing to work with parents to support the best treatment outcomes. In sum, this person should see parents as allies - and integral to facilitating skill use. Furthermore, our ideal candidate embodies humor, quick wit, and a curious nature coupled with an organized, analytic mind.
