We are recruiting a part-time Program Therapist to provide services in our Day Treatment for Teens Program. This program serves those who need a higher level of care than outpatient counseling. These services are being offered remotely through a secure video connection. This program helps teens struggling with aggressive or impulsive behaviors, authority defiance, relational conflicts, and high-risk behaviors. We work with teens and their families to restore emotional, social, and behavioral skills that have been impacted by mental health disorders. Teens develop coping skills to manage symptoms and related stress.

This role is approximately 25 hours per week, Monday - Friday from 12pm-4pm, with additional hours as needed for meetings and documentation. This role has the opportunity to be fully remote after training but must be within a one- to two-hour driving distance of our Appleton clinic.

What you will be doing

Provide counseling services by facilitating psycho-educational and process groups for clients admitted in our Day Treatment for Teens Program, along with completing individual and family sessions. You will be responsible for documenting patient progress in the electronic medical record, assuming responsibility for each assigned client. Researching appropriate topic areas and developing relevant programming materials will also be an important part of this role.

Quality mental health delivered with integrity is the first commitment we make to our clients. An additional commitment we make is to offer the option of Christian faith principles integrated with a client’s treatment, as needed and desired by the client. Research has proven that such faith-integrated treatment is effective and has longer lasting impact. It is an approach we are committed to delivering, and we train our staff to provide it. You will work in a unique environment where both your professional skills and your faith can grow.
