Life Renewal is looking for a senior clinical leader ready to shape behavioral health care across an entire region - not just at one site. This is not a caseload job. It's a seat at the leadership table, with the authority to set clinical standards, build infrastructure, and drive outcomes for individual and group therapy, family support, and trauma-informed care across six states.
If you're a licensed clinician who has outgrown the day-to-day caseload and is ready to lead supervisors, shape policy, and build something that lasts - and you want your clinical expertise to serve a Christ-centered mission of life transformation - we want to hear from you.
About Life Renewal
Life Renewal provides professional, state-certified counseling and mental health services as part of Adult & Teen Challenge PacWest's comprehensive, Christ-centered approach to recovery. We partner closely with ATC's residential discipleship and Super Thrift programs to deliver holistic care tailored to each client's unique needs - guided by our vision of putting hope within reach until all live free.
The Role
Reporting to the VP of Clinical Services, the Clinical Director owns the integrity, quality, regulatory compliance, and clinical effectiveness of every Life Renewal program across Oregon, Washington, Montana, Idaho, Alaska, and Hawaii. Rather than carrying a primary caseload, you'll lead through clinical supervisors, program managers, and site staff - setting the standard of care and building the systems that let great clinicians do great work at scale.
What You'll Own
Clinical Leadership & Quality
• Set organization-wide standards of care and ensure ethical, trauma-informed service delivery across every location.
• Own the design and continuous improvement of individual, family, and group therapy and psychosocial rehabilitation programming.
• Build and monitor clinical protocols for intake, assessment, treatment planning, and discharge - grounded in evidence-based practice.
• Track clinical outcomes and quality metrics across sites, using data to drive real program improvement.
• Keep crisis-response systems sharp, reliable, and consistently followed everywhere.
Supervision & Staff Development
• Lead clinical supervisors and site staff, maintaining consistent, high-quality supervision across six distinct state regulatory environments.
• Build onboarding, training, and continuing-education frameworks for clinical staff, interns, and students.
• Own performance management for clinical leadership and partner with site leaders on staff development.
Strategic Leadership
• Partner with agency leadership on strategic planning, grant writing, and program development.
• Weigh in on clinical budgeting and funding decisions, aligning program needs with organizational strategy.
• Represent Life Renewal in agency, community, and provider relationships across the region.
Requirements
What You Bring
• Master's degree or higher in Social Work, Counseling, Marriage and Family Therapy, Psychology, or a related clinical field.
• Current, unrestricted clinical licensure in at least one PacWest state (OR, WA, MT, ID, AK, or HI) - with willingness to pursue additional state credentials as the role requires within 6 months of hire.
• 5+ years of clinical leadership or supervisory experience, with a track record of leading clinical teams and programs.
• Real experience in trauma-informed care, substance use disorder treatment, and mental health services.
• Experience overseeing clinical compliance and quality in a regulated behavioral health setting; multi-site or multi-state experience is a strong plus.
• A genuine commitment to the mission and values of Adult & Teen Challenge PacWest, and the ability to lead within a Christ-centered ministry environment.
Good to Know Before You Apply
• Travel is real and regular - including flights to Alaska and Hawaii - alongside virtual leadership between visits.
• You don't need to be licensed in all six states on day one, but you do need to be willing to pursue additional credentials within 6 months of hire.
• Schedule includes some evenings and weekends.
• Valid driver's license, personal vehicle access, and auto insurance are required, along with a personal umbrella policy of at least $1,000,000.
• Candidates must attest to being free from chemical use problems for at least two years prior to hire; those in recovery must meet the continuous-abstinence standards defined by applicable state administrative code.
• Professional dress and conduct are expected at all times, consistent with a clinical and ministry environment.

Paid Sabbatical for Director-Level Leadership
As a Director-level role, this position is eligible for ATCPW's sabbatical program - up to 6 weeks of paid leave, with salary and benefits continuing, for rest, renewal, and personal development.
