At Resilient Kids Child & Family Therapy, we believe helping one child strengthens an entire family. We're seeking a fully licensed clinician ready to provide transformative therapy for children, teens, and families in a practice designed to eliminate therapist burnout through better systems and genuine support.

Who We're Looking For You're a skilled clinician who genuinely loves working with children, adolescents, and families. You understand how family systems shape treatment outcomes and you're passionate about helping families heal together.

You're also:

Documentation-focused — you treat charting as part of ethical care and maintain high-quality, timely notes

Ethically grounded and risk-aware — confident with crisis response, mandated reporting, and safety planning

A systems thinker — you maintain the “Golden Thread” from assessment through treatment

Culturally responsive and growth-minded — you integrate humility, equity, and inclusivity into your work

What Makes Resilient Kids Different

Warm referrals handled for you. Our intake team manages all marketing, referrals, and initial screenings — you start with a ready caseload.

True AI-enhanced clinical workflow. Advanced AI transforms your session notes into comprehensive documentation in minutes. Reclaim 10+ hours per week for actual clinical work.

Exceptional client retention. 95.7% show rate means consistent income and fewer last‑minute cancellations.

Full administrative support. Billing, intake scheduling, insurance verification, authorizations, and claims follow‑up handled by our admin team.

Paid for every clinical hour. Intake sessions, therapy sessions, cancellations, and no‑shows are all compensated.

Predictable, upfront pay. Biweekly pay based on billable hours — no waiting 30‑60 days for insurance reimbursements.

Clinical Creativity and Autonomy Choose your clinical style: traditional office‑based therapy, play and art therapy, walk‑and‑talk sessions, or nature‑based and equine‑assisted sessions through our partner non‑profit, Buddy's Place Farm. You have the right to decline referrals that aren't a good fit. Private, dedicated office space with quality technology, parking, and quiet outdoor spaces.
