Description

The Multisystemic Therapy (MST) Division of Star Care is seeking a qualified, compassionate Community-Based Therapist who wants to make a difference in people's lives.

Engage in weekly case planning and evaluation of case progress, with ongoing support from your supervisor and team members, including through group supervision.

While only one therapist works with a particular family, the MST team facilitates a supportive work environment to cover each other’s clients for vacation/time off and support each other to maintain a work/life balance.

Receive regular training, professional development, supervision, and consultation activities designed to help you acquire extensive clinical skills within the MST treatment model.

Provide clinical treatment to families using the MST treatment model and principles. Some principles include leveraging strengths and focusing on the positive, understanding sequences of behavior, and increasing mature behavior.

Conduct a thorough assessment of the client and family: gather information on behaviors of concern and strengths in the family and their ecology to inform conceptualization of the problem behaviors and interactions within the family’s ecological context.

Work comfortably with a diverse community of clients

Learn how to effectively connect with the families in the communities served by the team
