Bilingual MST Clinician
Careers @Evidence-Based Associates, Frisco, Texas, United States, 75034
Overview
Do you have a passion for working with children and families? We are looking for compassionate, dedicated people who want to empower youth and families by creating strength-based behavior change that will be sustained long after treatment ends. You will work in a supportive team environment with a small caseload of families, receiving ongoing team support, training and supervision in the Multisystemic Therapy (MST) model as you work holistically with families, youth, their communities, and other key members of their ecology to implement MST. MST has extensive research supporting its effectiveness in addressing the needs of youth who engage in problematic and criminal behaviors, and, in some cases, substance abuse. You will empower families to address problematic behaviors and help youth ages 12 - 17 make life-transforming changes through intensive interventions such as changing unhelpful family interactions, addressing peer and school problems, and increasing social support."
