Mental Health Therapist

October 5, 2026

Description:

Canopy Center’s Oasis program is a therapeutic program and certified Mental Health Clinic serving children from preschool through high school who have been sexually, physically, and emotionally abused. Our mission is to help heal the trauma of abuse, promote safety and stability within the family unit, and foster skills to sustain healthy functioning and prevent further abuse.
The Oasis Therapist must have a strong interest in developing knowledge and understanding of trauma treatment models and the dynamics of sexual abuse within families, as well as a demonstrated commitment to helping clients work through traumatic experiences. Experience working with children, adolescents, and/or adults, including caregivers, in a therapy setting, school, community agency, or nonprofit program is required. Experience in child-focused psychotherapy modalities and interventions is a plus.

Ideally the therapist has experience in creative methods such as dance, drama, music, and art therapy, but an interest in learning how to engage in and work with therapeutic material through play is a must. The Oasis Therapist must be willing to learn and develop skills in crisis and suicide intervention strategies for children. The Oasis Therapist must have strong organizational and written and verbal communication skills, along with the energy, enthusiasm, and desire to work within a community-minded nonprofit agency.
