About Us
The Wave of North Florida is a licensed Substance Use Disorder treatment facility delivering evidence-based services across residential, PHP, and IOP levels of care. We are part of The Wave International network, known for strong clinical programming, compliance standards, and client-centered support. We are rapidly growing and seeking an experienced Substance Abuse Counselor who can integrate quickly into our fast-paced, technology-driven environment.
Position Overview
We are urgently hiring a Substance Abuse Counselor to provide direct clinical services including therapy, group facilitation, treatment planning, documentation, and interdisciplinary collaboration. The ideal candidate has hands-on SUD treatment experience and can immediately contribute to client care without extensive onboarding.
Key Responsibilities

• Provide crisis intervention and support when needed
• Uphold state regulatory standards, client confidentiality, and professional ethics
• Support quality clinical programming aligned with ASAM criteria
Required Qualifications
• Minimum of one (1) year experience in Substance Use Disorder treatment
• Experience with individual and group counseling in a residential or outpatient setting
• Strong documentation skills and ability to learn technology quickly
• Knowledge of ASAM, treatment planning, evidence-based SUD modalities, and crisis response
• Must be comfortable with digital workflows, EMR systems, and rapid onboarding
Preferred Licensure/Certification (Florida)
Candidates may hold one of the following (or be actively in the process):
• CAP, MCAP, CAC, CCJAP, or related FL credential
• Registered interns (e.g., RMHC, RCSWI) with active supervision are welcomed if experienced in SUD treatment
• Masters degree strongly preferred, but experienced certified counselors will be considered
What We Offer
• Competitive pay based on experience and credentials
• Full-time schedule with growth opportunities as our programs expand
• Supportive leadership and a structured, compliant clinical environment
• Training, mentorship, and cross-department collaboration
• Opportunity to build a strong career with a growing multi-state organization
Ideal Candidates Will
• Work well in a fast-moving environment
• Be highly organized and accountable with documentation deadlines
• Demonstrate empathy, professionalism, and strong boundaries
• Adapt quickly to new systems, technology, and internal processes
We are actively interviewing and looking to fill this role as soon as possible. Qualified candidates are encouraged to apply promptly. We look forward to considering your experience and learning how you can contribute to our clinical team.
