We are seeking a dedicated mental health professional to join our team as a Support Counselor, delivering individualized services to youth and their families.
This role emphasizes flexibility and responsiveness, allowing you to meet clients where they are—whether at home, in school, or within the broader community. As a key contributor to an interdisciplinary team, you’ll collaborate with fellow therapists, counselors, family partners, educators, and local organizations to support client well-being. Your work as a Support Counselor will focus on promoting stability, building resilience, and connecting individuals to essential resources, all within a framework that values cultural awareness and trauma-informed care. In-person services for families will take place within Sonoma County while administrative tasks can be completed remotely.
