Outpatient mental health counselor

Neurodivergent and/or LGBTQ therapists are HIGHLY encouraged to apply. Overview I am the sole proprietor of a small private practice. Currently offering 1 on 1 mental health counseling, I specialize in mindfulness, somatic work, play therapy, and the autistic, DID, ADHD and LGBTQ communities. I also run a yearly musical at local churches, a therapeutic summer camp, and a community garden out of my home. Nothing About Us Without Us (NAUWU) is a very eclectic, social work, community building organization, and I am looking for like minded individuals to join me in making central PA a more peaceful and social justice minded area. Responsibilities I am hoping to find individuals interested in joining me with building the business from the ground up. This position would require a lot of hard work, as the business is fairly new. I am also currently looking into making the business a workers co-op. This means that if we decide to move forward with making NAUWU a workers co-op, you would be an owner of the business along with me, all decisions would be made jointly by discussion and by vote, including salary and any other financial decisions. Responsibilities would include seeing clients through insurance and/or self pay, creating treatment plans, keeping up with relevant professional development, and other related job duties to the role of an outpatient mental health counselor. Depending on your skills and interest, you would also be encouraged to explore our yearly social justice themed musical, community garden, and summer camp. But these are not mandatory job requirements. Experience Master's degree in Social Work, Counseling, Psychology, or a related mental health field from an accredited program. Valid licensure or certification appropriate for clinical counseling or social work practice (e.g., LMSW, LCSW, LMHC).

THIS IS PREFFERED

but I am also open to providing hours for post masters, pre-licensed individuals. Possibly one of the MOST important things I am looking for is a good attitude, a willingness to co-create positive working relationships, a willingness to work on self through professional and personal development, and a strong desire to help others/make the world a better place. Values matter more than knowledge. Demonstrated ability to conduct intake interviews, diagnostic evaluations, and develop individualized treatment strategies. Strong knowledge of medical terminology, HIPAA regulations, and medical documentation standards necessary for maintaining confidential records. Familiarity with diverse therapeutic approaches, candidates who have knowledge or specialize in alternative theraeutic models, such a drama therapy, expressive arts, play therapy, mindfulness, somatics, etc. are HIGHLY encouraged to apply. Individuals of marginalized identities such as POC, LGBTQ, and Neurodivergent are also HIGHLY encouraged to apply.
