Limited Permit MHC and/or Licensed MSW Part/Full-time Position
Are you a deeply compassionate, evidence-based therapist looking for a clinical home that values your growth just as much as your clients' healing?
At RISE Psychological Services, we believe that true healing happens in a supportive, deeply connected environment—and we know that starts with how we treat our team. We are looking for an exceptional Limited Permit Mental Health Counselor (MHC-LP) or Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) to join our practice under supervision. If you are passionate about fostering Resilience, Introspection, Serenity, and Empowerment in others, we might be the perfect fit for each other.
We know that being a therapist is profoundly rewarding, but it can also be heavy. We want to be the practice where you feel supported, guided, and celebrated as you do your life-changing work.
Who You Are:
-
You have a heart for evidence-based therapy: You love tailoring your clinical approach to the unique needs of individuals, couples, and families.
-
You value clinical boundaries and structure: You know that timely documentation (finishing notes within 24-72 hours) and robust treatment planning aren't just administrative tasks—they are extensions of excellent clinical care.
-
You are a collaborator: You thrive in a team environment, love weekly case consultations, and want a Clinical Director who genuinely has your back and is invested in your journey toward full licensure.
-
You honor the whole person: You possess cultural competence, empathy, and a willingness to integrate spiritual principles into therapy when requested by your clients.
-
You are driven by outcomes: You care about building trust and therapeutic rapport, aiming to keep clients engaged in their treatment journey (helping us maintain a healthy client retention rate).
-
You aren’t afraid to grow: None of us have all of the answers and it’s important to reflect that. We value individuals who ask questions and seek support when needed, no matter how small a matter may seem!
What You’ll Do (The Day-to-Day):
-
Provide high-quality, client-centered therapy while maintaining a manageable, agreed-upon caseload (seeing approximately 25 patients per week).
-
Conduct comprehensive intake assessments and craft personalized treatment plans with measurable goals (reviewed twice annually).
-
Master the art of crisis management with our full support—creating safety plans and coordinating directly with our clinical leadership when acute needs arise.
-
Utilize our practice management EHR to seamlessly manage your calendar and collaborate with our incredible administrative team.
What We Offer (The Logistics & Support):
-
This is a W2 part or full-time hourly position.
-
Dedicated Supervision: You will never be left on an island. We provide weekly supervision to help you actively work toward your New York State licensure, limited CEU support, case consultation, and team trainings.
-
Collaborative Leadership: Leaders don’t sit in an ivory tower, they are doing the same work you are day-in and day-out. We believe strongly in a philosophy of transparency and collaboration. Leadership at RISE Psychological Services exemplify these values and are committed to creating a warm environment that fosters the incredible work you do. Every step of the way, our therapists know what is going on behind the scenes and have a voice in the process.
-
A Clear Path to Success: We don't believe in moving the goalposts. You will always know exactly what success looks like in your role, from caseload expectations to clinical milestones.
The Requirements:
-
Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling or Clinical Social Work.
-
Must be able to obtain or already have an active LMSW or MHC-LP, or be immediately eligible to apply for a Limited Permit upon hire (employment is contingent upon permit issuance)
-
Live in New York State
-
A minimum of 1 year of clinical experience/internship.
-
An unshakable commitment to HIPAA, confidentiality, and professional ethics.
-
Tech-readiness (comfort with electronic health records, Google Workspace, etc.).
-
