Make a meaningful difference for children and families in your community.

Devereux Arizona is seeking a compassionate Clinician to provide individual and family therapy, and at times group therapy, to children, adolescents, and their families. Services are provided in a variety of settings, including clients’ homes, schools, community locations, and office settings.

You’ll have the opportunity to meet children and families in their everyday environments and provide therapy, support, treatment planning, and advocacy as part of a collaborative care team. If you’re a Master’s-level behavioral health professional who wants to build meaningful relationships with children and families while providing community-based clinical care, we encourage you to apply!
