Position Overview: We are seeking a compassionate and skilled Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) or Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with experience providing evidence-based mental health services to individuals recovering from mild traumatic brain injury/concussion to complement our cognitive rehabilitation services. This role focuses on treating secondary conditions such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), with a particular emphasis on the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Monitor patient progress, adjust treatment plans, and document outcomes in compliance with clinical and ethical standards. Offer patient and family education regarding recovery, coping strategies, and community resources. Maintain up-to-date knowledge of current research and best practices in brain injury rehabilitation and trauma-focused therapy.

Qualifications: Required Licensure: Active LCSW or LMFT license in California. Experience: Minimum 1–2 years of post-licensure clinical experience; direct experience with brain injury populations strongly preferred. Specialized training and certification in CBT and EMDR. Knowledge of the psychological, emotional, and cognitive sequelae of mild traumatic brain injury. Strong skills in patient-centered care, interdisciplinary teamwork, and evidence-based practice. Excellent communication, documentation, and clinical reasoning skills.
