Clinical Therapist

Community based position requiring going into clients homes providing therapy. 
 

Overview 

Do you have a passion for working with children and their families? We are looking for compassionate, dedicated professionals who want to empower youth and families by creating strength-based behavior change that will be sustained long after treatment ends. 

You will receive ongoing training in the Multisystemic Therapy (MST) model as you work with families, youth, their communities, and other key members of their ecology to implement MST as designed. Extensive research has proven the effectiveness of MST. MST therapists do whatever it takes, via close collaboration with all involved, to address the needs of juveniles with criminal offenses, including, in some cases, substance abuse. You will empower families to address challenging and/or problematic behavior and to help youth aged 12–17 make life-transforming changes. Treatment progress is made through intensive interventions such as skill building, changing unhelpful family interactions, and increasing social support, to name a few. For more information on multisystemic therapy, please watch this video: How Does MST Work?

EBA’s mission is to support families and strengthen communities through the high-quality implementation of evidence-based programs (EBPs). As a ‘production company’, we focus on the implementation issues back stage so that EBPs and community-based providers can be the ‘stars’ on stage. Over the past 15 years, EBA has served multiple states and counties in the areas of juvenile justice, child welfare, and behavioral health.

Our project support services address common implementation questions and concerns, such as:
• System Assessment: what are the gaps or needs in your current service system?
• Readiness Support: how do we get providers and stakeholders ready for EBPs?
• Program Implementation: how do we ensure we are implementing with high fidelity?
• Service Coordination: how do we make sure we’re matching the right service at the right time for the right children, youth, and family members?

EBA offers a team of professionals with backgrounds in social services, juvenile justice, evidence-based programs, information technology and human resources. EBA’s interdisciplinary team brings a combined total of more than 150 years of experience in clinical services and program management related to community-based and evidence-based programs.
