Residential Program Therapist

WMMHC’s Residential Program Therapist is a strength-focused clinician committed to helping individuals achieve their full potential and promoting wellness in behavioral health. By working one-on-one with clients, the Therapist advocates for client healing, self-determination, and education, leading to stabilization and integration for those with co-occurring mental health and substance use diagnoses.

We are excited to announce that WMMHC and AWARE Inc. are unifying to create a stronger agency that will provide the highest quality of support for the individuals, children, families, and communities we all serve.  As we move through this transition, new employees may begin their employment with WMMHC and later transition to AWARE, or they may be hired directly by AWARE, depending on their start date.  Together, we are committed to hiring outstanding individuals and offering a comprehensive benefits package that includes generous paid time off, health insurance, a retirement plan with company match, and so much more!  

The therapist will have experience with individuals diagnosed with severe and disabling mental illness.  They must possess excellent communication skills, demonstrate the ability to remain calm in crises, utilize ethical reflection, and understand how to complete assessments and documentation.    

Minimum Qualifications:

• Graduation from an accredited college with a Master’s degree in Social Work, Rehabilitation Counseling, or Psychology 

• Valid Licensure in MT as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) or Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW).  Professional candidates will also be considered.
