About us

Why AMK Counseling?

We are a private practice that believes high-quality mental health care should be both exceptional and accessible. We’ve traded the "clinical silo" for a warm, team-centered environment. Whether you’re working from our offices in Lincoln Park or Ravenswood, you’ll find a supportive team here.

The Role:

Impact Meets Growth

We are looking for a passionate clinician (ideally 1–3 years post-grad) who is ready to dive deep into meaningful work with children, adolescents, adults, and families.

What makes us different:
  • Equity in Action:
    We don't just talk about it. Through our nonprofit partnerships, we reserve space for scholarship and sliding-scale therapy, ensuring marginalized communities get the care they deserve.
  • Culture of Care:
    We prioritize your well-being as much as our clients'. By offering a ton of support, access to monthly CEs, a focus on ethical practice and sustainable caseloads.
  • Professional Evolution:
    You’ll be part of a collaborative team that values your clinical voice and supports your long‑term professional goals.
Who You Are
  • Licensed & Experienced:
    You hold an active IL license (LCSW, LCPC, LSW, LPC, etc) and have 1–3 years of clinical experience.
  • Culturally Responsive:
    You lead with empathy and a deep understanding of diverse identities and lived experiences.
  • Life‑Long Learner:
    You’re hungry for clinical growth and thrive in a collaborative team setting.
  • Mission‑Aligned:
    You’re excited about our hybrid model of private practice excellence and community impact.
