• Proven ability to make professional evaluations, decisions, and recommendations for effective treatment planning and client care.
\n
• Exceptional interpersonal skills and a compassionate, empathetic demeanor.
\n
• Strong technological skills for handling teletherapy platforms and managing client records.

Preferred Experience\n

While we welcome applications from candidates with varying levels of experience, those who have worked in community health settings or have experience with diverse populations will find this role particularly fulfilling. Familiarity with solution-focused therapy techniques and online therapy platforms will be beneficial.

Compensation and Benefits\n

\n
• Attractive salary range of USD 115,000–130,000 per year, commensurate with your experience and caseload.
\n
• A flexible work environment that promotes autonomy, allowing you to balance work responsibilities with personal commitments.
