Job Description
At Balanced Awakening, we do things differently.
We are a boutique, psychologist-led psychotherapy practice with a heart-centered, growth-oriented culture where clinicians are supported in doing deep, meaningful work — without burnout.
We are entering an exciting phase of expansion and are seeking a
Licensed Therapist (LCSW, LCPC, or LMFT ) who is passionate about meaningful clinical work, values alignment and sustainability, and desires a well-supported, abundant practice environment.
Licensed psychologists
are encouraged to view our separate Clinical Psychologist posting for a role tailored specifically to doctoral-level training and leadership opportunities.
We are especially excited to connect with
licensed clinicians who are well-established in their clinical work and are seeking a more supported, values-aligned environment for the next phase of their practice.
This role is particularly well-suited for clinicians who value
autonomy, strong infrastructure, and long-term sustainability
in their practice.
