About the Role
The Licensed Therapist will be responsible for working closely and effectively with a multidisciplinary care team (including nutrition, medical, psychiatry, and mentorship) and utilize evidenced based care modalities (such as FBT and CBT-E). The Licensed Therapist will be responsible for evidence based treatment delivery, quality documentation, and ongoing assessment of patients’ and families’ needs.
The Licensed Therapist role involves emotionally rewarding but inherently difficult work. To ensure continuity of care for both patients and providers, we are committed to offering benefits that support long‑term well‑being and job satisfaction. The Licensed Therapist has Flex PTO (recommended 3‑5 weeks), which we encourage all providers to take, as well as company holidays. They also have access to an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), a company‑paid resource for mental health, legal services, financial support, and more.
We know this work is hard, and strive to take care of our people who work so hard taking care of others.
Working Hours: Monday - Friday, between 8am-8pm.
Each work day is 8 hours + lunch, breaks, and 2 late work days where your day starts later and also ends later (8 PM) in your patient population's time zone. For example, we have Eastern Time, Central Time, and Pacific Time therapists. If you are hired as an Eastern Time therapist, your hours will be in Eastern time, given that the majority of your patients will live in Eastern Time.
Or if you are hired in Mountain Time and the majority of your patients are in Pacific Time, your hours will be in Pacific Time.
