W2 Psychotherapist in Training Position -- candidates who are either currently an LPC, LSW, or Post-Doc.

About the role

We’re looking for a psychotherapist actively working toward licensure to join our team. Supporting clinicians early in their careers is central to our mission. In supervision, we explore how systemic oppression impacts all of us, including therapists, in a field rooted in colonized structures. We address decolonizing therapy, racial trauma, and systemic inequities as they show up in session and hold space for you as both a person and a therapist navigating these dynamics.

We know that working toward licensure is a unique season in your career—it’s full of growth and learning, but it can also feel overwhelming at times. Our hope is to create a space where you feel supported, grounded, and able to thrive as you navigate this journey.

Responsibilities

• Conduct 80 client sessions per month (or 240 per quarter).
• Complete clinical notes promptly and thoughtfully.
• Engage fully in weekly, triadic, and monthly group supervision.
• Attend monthly team meetings to collaborate and connect with colleagues.

Requirements

• Must reside in the state of Illinois.
• Master’s degree in counseling, social work, or a post-doc in psychology.
• Hold an active Illinois provisional license (LSW or LPC), or be a postdoctoral fellow in psychology working toward licensure.
• Experience conducting individual clinical sessions (1:1) during your training program.
• Basic knowledge, awareness, and application of theoretical frameworks and clinical practices.
• Openness to learning and growing as a therapist, particularly in anti-oppressive, culturally responsive, and decolonized therapy practices.
