Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LCSW or LMFT)

About This Role

As our Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), you will be a vital part of a team that truly makes a difference in the lives of older adults. This role is more than just providing behavioral health care-it's about building meaningful relationships, offering compassionate support, and ensuring that seniors receive the person-centered care they deserve.

In this role, you'll work closely with an Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) to integrate behavioral health services into holistic care plans, ensuring that participants feel heard, understood, and supported. Whether you're providing therapy, guiding care planning, collaborating with specialists, or educating staff, your expertise will shape the way we approach mental health in older adults.

This is the perfect opportunity for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, embraces problem-solving with empathy and patience, and is committed to making a lasting impact. If you're looking for a role where your skills and compassion come together to improve the well-being of seniors, we'd love to welcome you to our team!
