Join a mission-driven behavioral health organization that has been a trusted partner to Long-Term Care (LTC) communities for over 30 years. Deer Oaks is a nationally recognized leader in geriatric behavioral health, partnering with thousands of facilities across the country to deliver compassionate, evidence-based care to older adults and individuals with chronic medical conditions.

We are seeking a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) to join our integrated clinical team. In this role, you will work onsite in one or more long-term care facilities within your local community, providing therapy, assessment, care planning, and behavioral health support.

As a key member of the interdisciplinary team, you will:

Clinical Care
  • Provide individual, family, and group therapy to LTC residents.
  • Conduct clinical assessments, psychosocial evaluations, screenings, and treatment planning.
  • Support residents with depression, anxiety, adjustment to illness, grief, trauma, substance use, behavioral disturbances, and other conditions common in LTC settings.
  • Deliver behavioral management and brief, goal-oriented interventions aligned with best practices in geriatric care.
Interdisciplinary Collaboration
  • Work closely with nursing, social services, rehabilitation, and medical providers to coordinate treatment and improve resident outcomes.
  • Participate in care plan discussions, facility meetings, and case collaborations as needed.
Documentation & Compliance
  • Maintain complete and timely documentation using our Geriatric Notes Tool (GNT).
  • Follow ethical, professional, and regulatory guidelines for clinical documentation, confidentiality, and care delivery.
Facility Partnership
  • Build strong, professional relationships with facility staff and leadership.
  • Serve as a behavioral health resource and trusted partner in supporting residents' mental and emotional needs.
Why Choose Deer Oaks?

We are a provider-centric organization that takes pride in supporting our clinicians with the tools, training, and benefits they need to succeed.

Work-Life Balance
  • Flexible scheduling - create your own Monday-Friday schedule
  • No evenings, weekends, or on-call
  • Autonomy in organizing your daily workflow and caseload

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and life insurance
  • 401(k) retirement plan
  • Generous PTO and paid holidays
Who Thrives in this Role?
  • LCPCs who value autonomy paired with team collaboration
  • Clinicians who enjoy working with older adults and medically complex individuals
  • Strong communicators comfortable partnering with facility staff
  • Providers who are organized, compassionate, and clinically confident
  • Clinicians seeking long-term stability in a supportive environment
