What are the responsibilities and job description for the Licensed Mental Health Therapist (DC / MD / VA) position at Therapeutic Links Behavioral Health Services, LLC?
At Therapeutic Links, we believe good therapy happens when clinicians are supported, expectations are clear, and growth is intentional; not rushed or left to chance.
We have served children, adults, couples and families across DC, Maryland, and Virginia for more than 15 years as a locally founded and operated group practice.
As we continue to grow, we’re looking to add graduate-licensed and independently licensed therapists to a team of clinicians who care about their work and value a practice environment that reflects that.
This Role Might Be a Fit If...
- You’re licensed in DC, MD or VA (LMFT, LGPC, LGSW, LMSW, LCPC, or LCSW)
- You want structure and support, but not micromanagement
- You value good supervision, clear communication, and ethical practice
- You’re open to feedback and invested in your growth
- You want flexibility without feeling disconnected from a team
The Work
- Provide outpatient individual therapy to children, adults, families and couples
- Complete clinical documentation in a timely, compliant way
- Participate in supervision, consultation, or leadership meetings depending on your track
- Collaborate with leadership when clinical support is needed
