What are the responsibilities and job description for the Outpatient Therapist (LPC or LCSW) position at Angelus Therapeutic Services, Inc?
About Angelus
Angelus Therapeutic Services is a Pennsylvania-based mental health practice serving Lawrence & Mercer Counties and the surrounding community. We provide outpatient, school-based, telehealth, community-based, and first responder programming, and we're known for a warm, trauma-informed approach — for our clients and for our team.
Position Summary
This is a primarily outpatient clinical role. The Outpatient Therapist will provide individual and family therapy to children and adolescents, as well as couples/relationship counseling, working within a supportive, collaborative clinical team. There is also the option — not a requirement — to facilitate group therapy for clinicians who are interested. This role requires independent, fully licensed clinical status — candidates must hold an active Pennsylvania license as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) or Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). We are not able to hire LSW or other associate/pre-independent licenses for this position. Because many clients and families are only available outside the school or work day, this role requires some evening and/or weekend hours.
