About the Role:

Support adolescents ages 12–17 in one of Muir Wood's residential mental health programs—either our girls' mental health program, where approximately one-third of residents are neurodivergent, or our specialized boys' neurodivergent mental health program.

You'll work alongside therapists and licensed clinicians, providing daily therapeutic support, skills coaching, and supervision. No medical or clinical license required—we provide full training.

Our residents include teens with anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, and emotional dysregulation. Our program is designed to support their unique strengths within a structured, affirming environment.

Why Join Us:

  • Direct care role—not a clinical or medical technician position
  • Specialized program supporting neurodivergent teens
  • Full training provided—no prior experience needed
  • Gain experience toward careers in mental health, counseling, social work, or education
  • Work alongside therapists, psychiatrists, nurses, and experienced clinicians

What You'll Do:

  • Provide therapeutic support and skills coaching under direction of licensed clinicians
  • Support teens through daily routines: meals, hygiene, recreation, and structured activities
  • Build therapeutic relationships while maintaining healthy, appropriate boundaries
  • Monitor client safety and provide one-on-one observation when clinically indicated
  • Respond to behavioral and emotional crises using de-escalation techniques
  • Communicate with clinical staff about resident progress during shift handoffs
  • Transport clients to appointments and activities (clean CA license required)
  • Complete accurate, timely documentation per program requirements
Requirements:

What We're Looking For:

Must Have:

  • High school diploma or GED
  • Valid CA driver's license with clean record
  • First Aid/CPR certified (or willing to obtain)
  • Calm, patient, and reliable—teens depend on consistent support

Preferred:

  • Coursework or degree in psychology, social work, counseling, education, OT, SLP, or related field
  • Experience with autistic teens, ADHD, sensory processing differences, or neurodivergent populations
  • Background in special education, residential treatment, or youth programs
  • Knowledge of trauma-informed care or adolescent development

About Muir Wood:
We provide trauma-informed, relationship-centered residential treatment for teens ages 12–17. Our neurodivergent program offers a structured, affirming environment where teens can build on their unique strengths—guided by a compassionate team of clinicians, educators, and direct care staff.
