This full-time position offers the flexibility of a remote work environment, allowing you to provide support to clients while enjoying a work-life balance. Join our team and contribute to the wellbeing of the community by utilizing your expertise in mental health.

Health Journey Wellness is a respected community center located in Vancouver, Washington, dedicated to delivering holistic mental health services. We pride ourselves on our comprehensive approach to mental wellbeing, providing therapy to individuals of diverse backgrounds, including those struggling with mood disorders such as depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder. Our mission is to foster positive transformations in our clients' lives through evidence-based therapeutic practices.

This role is primarily remote, enabling you to create a comfortable and efficient counseling space from your own home, all while working closely with a supportive team of professionals. Our outpatient office setup allows for integrated care where efficiency meets compassion. The remote setting ensures that you can engage with clients through secure telehealth platforms, providing access to therapy regardless of geographical constraints.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist at Health Journey Wellness, your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

• Conducting thorough assessments to evaluate the intensity, frequency, and duration of mood disorder symptoms in clients.
• Developing individualized treatment plans, incorporating evidence-based practices tailored to each client's unique circumstances and therapeutic needs.
• Implementing therapeutic interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to address mood disorders effectively.
• Providing psychoeducation to clients and their families to enhance understanding of mood disorders, treatment options, and self-care strategies.
• Monitoring client progress in therapy, adjusting treatment plans as necessary based on evolving client needs.
• Collaborating with psychiatrists and other medical professionals to ensure coordinated and comprehensive care for clients.
• Staying abreast of the latest research and developments in mood disorder treatments to refine your therapeutic approach and support enhanced client outcomes.
• Maintaining meticulous, confidential records in compliance with legal and ethical standards.
• Participating in regular case consultations, team meetings, and professional development opportunities to foster a culture of continuous learning.
• Advocating for clients to reduce stigma around mental health and ensure they receive the necessary support.

Your role will focus primarily on clients contending with various mood disorders, including anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. You will work with a diverse range of individuals, including underserved populations such as those experiencing homelessness, refugees, and victims of domestic abuse. This variety enriches the therapeutic process and presents both challenges and rewards as you aid clients in navigating their emotional landscapes.

• Demonstrated empathy, understanding, and a non-judgmental approach to client experiences and struggles.
• Strong organizational and time-management abilities to balance clinical responsibilities and administrative tasks.

While experience working with mood disorders is preferred, candidates with a strong foundation in other areas of therapy may also be considered. Experience in trauma-informed care and knowledge of addiction counseling can be especially valuable in this role. The ideal candidate will have a passion for supporting marginalized groups, enhancing client outcomes through compassionate and culturally sensitive practices.

The salary range for this position falls between USD 70,000 and 90,000 annually, commensurate with qualifications and experience. In addition to competitive pay, we offer a robust benefits package, which includes:
