Psychotherapist (Licensed Mental Health Therapist)

At Lorenz Clinic, psychotherapy isn’t a product—it’s an interpersonal process. We’re a mission‑driven, clinician‑led family psychology institute where systems thinking, reflective practice, and relational depth form the foundation of our work. While many clinics are reorganizing around productivity quotas, algorithmic care, and interchangeable services, we’ve chosen a different path—one that centers integrity, intellectual rigor, and clinical maturity. Excellence isn’t just preserved; it’s cultivated. We selectively hire full‑time licensed therapists who want to work at depth, not on autopilot. Our team is made up of clinicians who approach complexity with humility, think systemically, and use the therapeutic relationship as a catalyst for meaningful change, not just symptom management. If you’re looking for more than checklists and caseloads, if you want to practice in a thoughtful, rigorous, and human‑centered clinical community, you may have just found your next professional home. About Lorenz Clinic Lorenz Clinic is not your typical mental health clinic—we are a clinician‑led, post‑graduate training institute focused on Family Psychology, grounded in the belief that psychotherapy should honor human complexity. Our mission is to heal the world one relationship at a time. We’re proud to be Minnesota’s first family psychology specialty clinic and the state’s first home for organized Post‑Master’s Fellowships. Our aim has never been scale—it’s always been excellence. That’s why we hire fewer than 5 % of applicants and invest deeply in those we do. Therapists who thrive here are relational by orientation and rigorous by training. They’re energized by reflective practice, conceptual thinking, and the shared task of advancing the field. We believe that symptoms are contextual, and that therapists need supportive systems of their own to do meaningful clinical work. That’s why we’ve embedded Reflective Practice into the core infrastructure of the clinic—not as a feature, but as a foundation. Training at Lorenz is not a sideline; it’s a lifeline. Roughly 40 % of our clinical team is engaged in supervision, teaching, or development work at any given time. Our training programs are nationally respected and clinically rich, sharpening every clinician, whether or not they’re directly involved. We’ve built an evidence‑based Clinician Wellness Roadmap rooted in fairness, peer support, and professional autonomy. Our goal is to foster a system where clinicians can grow, reflect, and practice at the top of their craft—without compromising themselves. About the Role As a licensed psychotherapist at Lorenz Clinic, you will provide diagnostic assessment, psychotherapy, and treatment planning to a diverse clientele across the lifespan. Clinicians practice within their areas of competence and specialty, with support for developing clinical interests over time. Our clinics are embedded in Main Street communities, places where behavioral health access is too often out of reach. We’re not a boutique practice; we’re a relational home for those committed to the social mission of psychotherapy. Over 43 % of our clients use Medicaid, and our sliding fee scale goes to zero—a tangible reflection of our values. Despite the complexity of our client population, our no‑show rate is under 10 %, a testament to the strength of our engagement practices and the quality of therapeutic relationships. Clinicians participate in regular case consultation, Grand Rounds, and team meetings as part of our collaborative culture.
