Licensed Mental Health Therapist (Washington)

The Sterling Group is a thriving private mental health practice based out of Washington, DC. We specialize in working with young adults as they navigate the challenges and transitions of their personal lives, relationships, and careers. We understand and have personally experienced the unique pressures and demands on students and young professionals in this area, and our mission is to support our clients in creating lives they love to become happy, healthy adults. We are as goal and action-oriented as the individuals we work with and are committed to the highest quality, most innovative care.

We place a high value on our staff and have cultivated a workplace culture of collaboration, mutual respect, and open communication within a structure that encourages work/life balance. We are actively seeking to build an inclusive workplace that reflects and serves our diverse community. Applications from people of color, all genders and backgrounds, and the LGBTQIA+ community are strongly encouraged!
