Not every private practice is the same. Thriving Child Center is a private-pay specialty practice dedicated to providing exceptional, evidence-based care to children, adolescents, and families. We're looking for an experienced Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has spent years developing their clinical expertise and wants to practice alongside colleagues who hold themselves to the same high standards. We believe exceptional therapy requires more than experience alone. It requires excellent clinical judgment, genuine warmth, integrity, intellectual curiosity, and a commitment to continually becoming a better therapist. If you're looking for a practice where your expertise is respected, your referrals are supported, and your focus can remain on outstanding clinical care rather than building a business, we'd love to meet you.
