Independent Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC, LICSW)
for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)
- Use - for lists,
for prose
- Do NOT repeat job title as heading (page already shows it)
- Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings
- Preserve ALL substantive information
- Remove boilerplate (EEO, equal opportunity, scam warnings, application instructions)
- Include section ONLY when posting has real, specific content
- Never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text
- Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them
- Output ONLY HTML fragment, no /, no markdown code fences
Now, let me map the content to appropriate sections:
Company Summary: This contains company culture info and mentions benefits (401K matching, medical, dental, vision, life insurance). This could be "About the company" or "Benefits". Since it mentions benefits specifically, I'll include a Benefits section.
Job Summary: This describes the role - "About the role" heading.
Duties and Responsibilities: This is a list - "Responsibilities" heading.
Education/Experience: This lists requirements - "Requirements" or "Qualifications" heading.
Physical Requirements: This is specific physical demands - could be under "Requirements" or separate. Since it's distinct, maybe include as part of Requirements or separate section. The rules mention "Requirements" as a heading option.
Certifications and Licenses: This is specific licenses - could be part of Requirements/Qualifications.
The posting also mentions "American Addiction Centers is an equal opportunity employer..." - this is EEO boilerplate, should be removed.
Now, let me structure:
1. About the role (from Job Summary)
2. Responsibilities (from Duties and Responsibilities)
3. Requirements (combining Education/Experience, Physical Requirements, Certifications and Licenses)
4. Benefits (from Company Summary - mentions specific benefits)
Wait, the Company Summary also has culture info. Should I include an "About the company" section? The rules say "About the role" is a heading example, but not "About the company". However, the rules say "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". The "e.g." suggests these are examples, not exhaustive. But the rule also says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". The company summary has specific content about culture and benefits. I think I should include it as "About the company" or maybe fold into Benefits? But Benefits is listed as an example heading. The company summary mentions "exceptional comp and strong benefits include company matching 401K, medical, dental, vision and life insurance." That's specific benefits content. The culture info is also substantive.
I'll create:
- About the company (for culture description)
- Benefits (for the listed benefits)
- About the role (job summary)
- Responsibilities (duties)
- Requirements (education, experience, physical, licenses)
But the rules say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe combine About the company and Benefits? Or keep separate since Benefits is a specific example heading.
Let me check: The company summary paragraph: "If you are searching for a fulfilling place to develop your career and an opportunity to make a difference in helping others, then keep reading on. Here at AAC, we have a progressive culture; we listen to your ideas, value a work/life balance, invest in education, and we foster trust and respect for all individuals. Our exceptional comp and strong benefits include company matching 401K, medical, dental, vision and life insurance. We are looking for our future leaders, who are not only going to fill the qualifications for this job description, but who are going to exceed expectations. Be a part of a team whose mission is to provide quality, compassionate, and innovative care to adults struggling with addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. Our purpose and passion are to empower patients, their families, and our communities by helping individuals achieve recovery and optimal wellness of the mind, body, and spirit."
This has both culture and benefits. I could make an "About the company" section with the culture prose, and a "Benefits" section with the benefits list. But the benefits are mentioned in a sentence, not a list. I could extract them into a list.
The rules: "Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". So for benefits, I should make a list.
Similarly, for requirements, there are multiple items - should be list.
Physical requirements: "Prolonged sitting at a desk", "Must be able to lift 15 pounds at a time" - list.
Certifications: "Unrestricted license to practice in the State of employment LICSW, LMHC, or LMFT." - could be list item.
Education/Experience: multiple bullet points.
Now, the EEO statement at the end: "American Addiction Centers is an equal opportunity employer. American Addiction Centers prohibits employment practices that discriminate..." - this is boilerplate, remove.
Also, the Physical Requirements section starts with "AAC is committed to principles of equal opportunities for all employees. The Company will provide reasonable accommodations that are necessary to comply with State and Federal disability discrimination laws" - this is also EEO boilerplate, remove.
Now, let me draft the HTML.
Sections:
1. About the company (h3) - prose from company summary (first part)
2. Benefits (h3) - list of benefits mentioned
3. About the role (h3) - prose from job summary
4. Responsibilities (h3) - list from duties
5. Requirements (h3) - list combining education, experience, physical, licenses
But the rules say "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)". The job title isn't given in the text, but presumably it's "Counselor III". The job summary says "Counselor III will demonstrate expertise...". So I should not include "Counselor III" as a heading.
Now, let me write the HTML.
I need to be careful: "Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences."
So just the HTML tags.
Let me structure:

I combined Physical Requirements and Certifications into Requirements. The Certifications section just repeats the license requirement, so I included it once.
Note: The original has "Demonstate dependability" - typo, I'll correct to "Demonstrate". Also "deescalates" -> "deescalate". "Utliziation" -> "Utilization". I'll keep the corrected versions.
Also, the job summary mentions "Counselor III" multiple times. Since the page already shows the job title, I should keep the content but not add a heading for it. The prose refers to "Counselor III" - that's fine, it's part of the description.
Now, check for any missing content: The company summary also says "Our exceptional comp and strong benefits include..." - I extracted benefits. The culture part is in About the company.
The Physical Requirements section had the EEO statement which I removed.
The Certifications and Licenses section is just the license, already included.
The Education/Experience section has "Education/ Experience" heading, but I'm using Requirements.
The Duties and Responsibilities has a preamble: "To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and

I'll create:
- About the company (for culture description)
- Benefits (for the listed benefits)
- About the role (job summary)
- Responsibilities (duties)
- Requirements (education, experience, physical, licenses)
But the rules say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe combine About the company and Benefits? Or keep separate since Benefits is a specific example heading.
