As we expand our physical presence in Salida and Chaffee County , we are looking for a clinician who is excited about more than simply carrying a caseload. This position offers the opportunity to help strengthen and expand our local clinical programming, work collaboratively with an experienced behavioral health and peer support team, and potentially take on a significant role within our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). Our clients may seek treatment for mental health concerns, substance use concerns, or both, and services are individualized based on each client's needs, goals, and circumstances. We are especially interested in clinicians who enjoy working in a smaller, mission-driven organization where there is room to grow, contribute ideas, develop new programming, and help shape services as the organization expands. The Position This is a hybrid clinical position , combining in-person services from our Salida office with telehealth services as appropriate. The position will begin as an independent contractor role , with the potential to develop into a full-time salaried position as our Salida programming, clinical caseload, and IOP services continue to grow. Responsibilities may be tailored based on the clinician's experience, licensure, interests, availability, and the level of responsibility they would like to take on within the organization. For the right candidate, this position has significant room to grow beyond a traditional individual caseload and may include group programming, IOP responsibilities, program development, and increased clinical leadership over time.

Primary Responsibilities Responsibilities may include:

Responsibilities will be assigned according to the clinician's credential, professional scope, experience, and applicable supervision requirements. Preferred Experience We would especially like to hear from candidates with experience in: Mental health counseling or psychotherapy Substance use disorder treatment Co-occurring mental health and substance use treatment Group counseling or group therapy Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) treatment Individual counseling or psychotherapy Biopsychosocial assessments and treatment planning Telehealth behavioral health services Medicaid populations Justice-involved or re-entry populations Rural behavioral health Trauma-informed, person-centered, and strengths-based treatment Collaborative care involving clinical, peer, and community-based services Working with individuals who have experienced barriers to accessing behavioral health care Culturally responsive and affirming behavioral health treatment Previous IOP and/or group treatment experience is highly preferred , particularly for candidates interested in taking on greater program responsibility as this position develops. Bilingual Candidates Strongly Encouraged We are especially seeking bilingual English/Spanish-speaking clinicians as we continue expanding access to services for Spanish-speaking clients and families throughout Chaffee County and surrounding communities. Spanish-language skills are highly valued and may create additional opportunities as Sagebrush continues to grow its local programming. An Inclusive Approach to Care Sagebrush Recovery is committed to creating a welcoming and affirming environment for both clients and team members. We serve individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, identities, cultures, life experiences, and pathways to recovery, and we value clinicians who are comfortable providing culturally responsive, 2SLGBTQIA+-affirming, trauma-informed, and person-centered behavioral health care. Experience working with LGBTQIA+ communities, culturally diverse populations, underserved communities, and individuals who have historically experienced barriers to behavioral health treatment is strongly valued. We welcome qualified applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to providing equal employment opportunities without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, or other protected status. What We Are Looking For The right person for Sagebrush will be clinically competent while also being flexible, collaborative, and comfortable working within a growing organization. We are looking for someone who: Values individualized and person-centered treatment Provides culturally responsive and affirming care Understands that mental health, substance use, and recovery needs look different for every person Works well alongside both clinical and peer professionals Is comfortable collaborating across disciplines and community systems Can balance independence with communication and teamwork Is comfortable working within a growing organization where programs and opportunities continue to evolve Wants the opportunity to help build and strengthen programming rather than simply step into a narrowly defined position Experience is important, but so is finding someone who genuinely fits the culture and direction of Sagebrush Recovery.

Schedule & Location Location:

Salida, Colorado / Hybrid This role will include opportunities for in-person clinical services at our Salida location , along with telehealth services. Scheduling and overall workload may initially be flexible and will depend on clinician availability, current caseload needs, group programming, and the responsibilities the clinician is interested in taking on. Candidates interested in helping facilitate or oversee IOP programming should be comfortable with scheduled group hours, which may include evening programming. Because we are actively expanding our in-person presence in Salida, candidates should be able and willing to provide at least some services locally rather than working exclusively through telehealth. Compensation This position will initially be structured as an independent contractor position .

Compensation will depend on:

Licensure and credentials Clinical experience Services provided Caseload responsibilities Group facilitation responsibilities IOP experience and responsibilities Administrative responsibilities Program-development responsibilities Overall level of responsibility within the organization As Sagebrush expands its Salida clinical programming, there is potential for this position to transition into a full-time salaried role with increased clinical and/or program leadership responsibilities. Why Sagebrush? Sagebrush is intentionally building a model that brings mental health treatment, substance use treatment, peer recovery support, and community-based services together rather than treating them as completely separate systems. We believe behavioral health care should be individualized, accessible, collaborative, and responsive to the person in front of us. For a clinician who wants to practice in a rural Colorado community while also helping develop something meaningful, this position offers considerable room for professional growth and involvement in the future direction of our programming. We are looking for someone who wants to become part of Sagebrush—not simply fill available appointment slots.
