Ascend Medical is seeking a warm, experienced therapist with a passion for working with older adults to join our Behavioral Health Team. This independent contractor position is ideal for a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), or Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who enjoys building relationships and delivering impactful care on-site within senior living and long-term care communities.
