Requirements Qualifications Required Master’s degree in Social Work, Counseling, Marriage & Family Therapy, Psychology, or related field. Current, active licensure in the state of practice (e.g., LCSW, LPC, LMFT, LMHC, LPCC). Minimum of 2 years clinical experience providing therapy in outpatient or community-based settings. Experience working with diverse and underserved populations. Knowledge of evidence-based therapeutic modalities such as CBT, DBT, MI, trauma-informed care, and solution-focused therapy. Strong documentation, communication, and time-management skills. Preferred Experience working in an FQHC, community health center, or integrated care setting. Bilingual proficiency (e.g., Spanish) highly desirable. Familiarity with Medicaid/Medicare, value-based care, SUD treatment, and collaborative care models. Work Environment Full-time or part-time position within a multidisciplinary FQHC setting. May involve hybrid onsite/telehealth delivery depending on organizational policies. Must be able to manage a diverse caseload and meet productivity expectations while maintaining high-quality care.
