The Position

• The Licensed Therapist position is a clinical role performed by a licensed mental health professional who provides professional therapeutic services to individuals, couples, families, and/or groups. This role involves applying mental health, psychotherapeutic, and human development principles to facilitate adjustment and development throughout the lifespan.
• This position operates on a hybrid model, requiring set days at our Denton office on the square, along with remote/virtual (telehealth) sessions from your home. This offers flexibility and independence while benefiting from our supportive environment and comprehensive administrative assistance.
