We are seeking a passionate and skilled Master's-level Unlicensed Therapist (with a Candidate Permit: SWC, LSW, LPCC, or MFT-C), Licensed Therapist (LCSW, LPC, or LMFT), or Unlicensed/Licensed Psychologist to join our Intensive In-Home Services team at Aurora Mental Health & Recovery.

In this dynamic role, you will provide trauma-informed, attachment-focused therapy to youth ages 6–17 and their caregivers directly in their homes, with a focus on improving emotional regulation, parenting, and behavior management. Traveling throughout Aurora (mileage reimbursed), you’ll deliver dyadic and parent-only therapy rooted in the neurobiology of trauma.
