Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Job Description

Small Town. Big Impact. Zero Weekends.

You got into this field to change lives, not to answer on-call pages at midnight. This mission-driven organization wants a therapist who cares deeply about their work and wants their evenings to stay their own. If substance use treatment is where you do your best work, this is your chance to help build something meaningful.

Why You’ll Love It Here

\n
• Your weekends are yours. Monday through Friday, 7:30a to 5:30p. No call. No weekends.
\n
• One office. Your office. A single location, a dedicated space, in-person care and NextGen EMR.
\n
• Backup when you need it. You’ll join an established behavioral health team with psychiatric support and admin help, so you can focus on patients instead of paperwork.
\n
• Room to build. Help grow the practice’s substance abuse treatment program and leave your mark on it.
\n
• A culture that counts. Here, team fit matters as much as clinical skill.
\n
• Keep learning on their dime. You get 2 to 3 paid CME days a year plus a $1,000 CME allowance.
\n

The Numbers You Care About

\n
• $75,000 to $86,000 base, depending on licensure and experience
\n
• An annual bonus plus a raise review at six months, so you won’t wait a full year to talk money
\n
• Relocation assistance
\n
• Student loan repayment eligibility through both the State of Tennessee and HRSA programs
\n
• Tiered medical contribution, dental and vision, PTO accrual and 10 paid holidays
\n

What You Bring

\n
• A Master’s in Social Work (LCSW) or Counseling (LPC)
\n
• Active or in-process Tennessee LCSW/LPC licensure
\n
• Adult outpatient therapy experience
\n
• Substance abuse experience (this one is a must)
\n
• All experience levels are welcome, with 3+ years preferred
\n
• A genuine heart for rural, mission-driven care
\n

Life Outside the Office

Spend your free weekends hiking Tennessee state parks or out on the river. You’ll get four true seasons, an affordable cost of living, low crime and easy access to Knoxville and the rest of the state. Your paycheck goes further and so does your weekend.
