Description

Associate-Licensed Mental Health Therapist

Location: Scottsdale, AZ

License: LAC, LAMFT, LMSW or other qualifying Arizona associate-level behavioral health license

Anew Treatment Center is seeking an Associate-Licensed Mental Health Therapist to join our multidisciplinary clinical team. This position is designed for an associate-level clinician who is ready to strengthen their clinical skills, gain meaningful experience with complex client presentations, and continue progressing toward independent licensure within a supportive treatment environment.

Anew provides residential behavioral health treatment and transitional care services for adults experiencing complex mental health and co-occurring conditions. Our therapists provide individual, family, and group psychotherapy while working closely with experienced clinicians and the broader treatment team.

The Impact You'll Make

As an Associate Therapist at Anew, you will have the opportunity to grow as a clinician while making a meaningful impact in the lives of clients and their families. You will develop experience across individual, family, and group therapy; assessment and treatment planning; crisis intervention; discharge planning; and multidisciplinary collaboration.

Because treatment extends beyond the therapy office, you will also participate in the therapeutic milieu and gain experience understanding how clinical interventions translate into clients' everyday relationships, behaviors, and recovery.

Clinical Supervision & Professional Growth

We believe associate-level clinicians benefit from both meaningful clinical experience and strong supervision.

At Anew, Associate Therapists:

Receive regular clinical supervision from qualified independently licensed clinicians.

Participate in weekly individual supervision as directed by licensure requirements and the Clinical Director.

Receive ongoing case consultation, feedback, and professional development.

Gain experience working with complex mental health and co-occurring presentations.

Develop competencies across individual, family, and group treatment.

Work alongside an experienced multidisciplinary treatment team.

Are supported in progressing toward independent clinical licensure.

What You'll Do Provide individual, family, and group psychotherapy under appropriate clinical supervision.

Manage a clinical caseload as determined by the Clinical Director.

Conduct and participate in clinical assessments and reassessments within your scope of practice.

Participate in the development, implementation, and ongoing evaluation of individualized treatment plans.

Collaborate with the multidisciplinary treatment team regarding client progress, clinical needs, risk concerns, and discharge planning.

Communicate with outside treatment providers when clinically indicated.

Maintain an active presence within the therapeutic milieu and help address emerging client needs and dynamics.

Maintain timely and accurate clinical documentation, including progress notes, treatment plans, assessments, and admission and discharge documentation.

Participate in clinical meetings, supervision, case consultation, trainings, and staff meetings.

Maintain professional and ethical standards related to boundaries, confidentiality, HIPAA, and clinical practice.

Provide culturally responsive care and demonstrate respect for the diverse backgrounds and experiences of clients and colleagues.

These responsibilities align closely with Anew's existing Associate Therapist job description, including direct psychotherapy, assessment, treatment planning, discharge planning, milieu involvement, documentation, and multidisciplinary collaboration.

Qualifications Current Arizona associate-level behavioral health license in good standing, such as LAC, LAMFT, or LMSW, or other qualifying license/credential appropriate to the position.

Master's degree in counseling, marriage and family therapy, social work, psychology, or a related behavioral health field appropriate to licensure.

Commitment to continued professional development and progression toward independent licensure.

Clinical experience working with individuals with mental health conditions preferred.

Residential behavioral health experience preferred, but not required.

Experience or interest in working with complex mental health and co-occurring conditions.

Strong communication, documentation, organization, and collaboration skills.

Valid driver's license in good standing and current auto insurance.

Successful completion of drug screening and comprehensive background check.

Success in This Role

We are looking for an emerging clinician who is curious, receptive to supervision, clinically thoughtful, compassionate, self-aware, collaborative, and motivated to continue developing their professional identity and clinical skills.

Benefits PTO and Sick Time accrual from your first day

Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits

401(k) Plan

Clinical supervision and ongoing case consultation

Professional development opportunities

Experience working within a multidisciplinary residential treatment environment

Why Anew?

Anew provides Associate Therapists with an opportunity to do more than accumulate clinical hours. You will be immersed in a therapeutic community where you can develop your clinical judgment, work with complex presentations, learn from experienced clinicians, and see how treatment unfolds beyond the therapy session.

If you're an associate-level clinician looking for a place to grow, deepen your clinical skills, and work toward independent licensure while making a meaningful contribution to client care, we'd love to hear from you.
