A Mental or Behavioral Health Counselor works with patients to treat mental health problems. Assesses patients and assists with diagnosis, counseling and crisis intervention.

Sierra Sage Treatment Center provides residential treatment for young women in a safe, supportive, nurturing environment. Through accredited education, vocational training, and a normalized high school experience, we give our youth the skills to overcome abuse, neglect, trauma, substance abuse, mental illness, and violence — so they can build healthy futures. We're looking for a Therapist to join our clinical team.
Why Sierra Sage:
Unlike private practice, where your income depends on how many clients you can churn through in a day, our model is built around collaboration, not productivity quotas. You'll work as part of a true multi-disciplinary team — clinicians, educators, and residential staff working from one integrated treatment plan — instead of carrying a caseload alone. No billing pressure, no productivity targets. Just the time and support to do deep clinical work with a residential population whose needs go far beyond what a 50-minute weekly session can address. Invest in your growth, on our dime. We provide paid clinical supervision toward licensure, plus training and certification in evidence-based practices — so you're not funding your own professional development or hunting down a supervisor on the side. Build your clinical skill set while you build your career.

Starting at $80,000-$100,000/year, DOE and licensure.
