In this full-time remote role, you will provide essential therapeutic services and support to individuals facing substance use challenges, particularly in a detoxification setting. Through your expertise, you will conduct comprehensive assessments, craft tailored treatment plans, and lead both individual and group therapy sessions to promote recovery and healing.

About the Organization\n

Growth Mindset Counseling Center is a leading mental health service provider located in Glendale, California, dedicated to fostering emotional well-being. Our mission is to ensure accessible, effective, and compassionate care for our clients. We believe in the potential for positive change and are devoted to facilitating an environment where individuals can thrive.

Key Responsibilities\n

\n
• Conduct thorough virtual psychosocial assessments, evaluating clients' strengths and needs to inform treatment strategies.

\n
• Advocate fervently for the rights of clients, ensuring they have access to essential community resources and additional support services.
