We seek minority clinicians with an array of skills and interests: DBT, addiction work, eating disorder experience, sex therapy, LGBTQ specialty, and more.

People of color, bilingual clinicians (Arabic, Urdu, Farsi, French, Spanish and more!), and members of the LGBTQ+ community are highly encouraged to apply. We are an equal opportunity employer. We’d also love to hear from applicants with intersecting professional interests: artists, second career folks, doulas, and so forth. Each clinician in our practice has dedicated slots for sliding scale clients, and will be exposed to monthly didactic trainings and group supervision, as well as weekly individual supervision by an independently licensed clinician. The Role: Our openings are for therapists (MHC-LP or LMSW) looking for part-time or full-time and remote positions (15-20 hours a week) to practice in New York under high-level supervision. We are delighted to facilitate therapists’ interests in individual, couple, family and group work, or whatever combination calls to you.
