This position is ideal for someone who thrives outside of a traditional office and wants to make a visible impact across New York City communities.
About the Role
This is an outreach-focused, field-based clinical position serving adults with significant behavioral health needs. You will meet clients where they are: shelters, hospitals, community programs, or public settings to deliver therapeutic support, crisis intervention, and linkage to ongoing services. Your work helps stabilize individuals during vulnerable moments and connects them to long-term treatment, housing, and safety.
If you want a role that is active, relationship-driven, and deeply meaningful, this position offers exactly that.

- Provide mental health assessments, brief therapy, crisis stabilization, and clinical support in community and field settings

- Facilitate therapeutic or psychoeducational group sessions
- Complete documentation in the electronic health record (EHR)
- Participate in clinical meetings and contribute to program development and strategy
What You Bring
- Active New York State license: LCSW, LMHC, or LMFT
- Master's degree in Social Work, Mental Health Counseling, Psychology, or a related field
- Experience in community mental health, crisis work, homeless services, or outreach preferred
- Understanding of NYC behavioral health and housing systems
- Strong communication and documentation skills
- Bilingual clinicians highly encouraged to apply
Compensation & Benefits
- Salary: $76,900 annually
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- Retirement plan with up to 10% employer match
- Comprehensive PTO, sick time, and 11+ paid holidays
- Eligible for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF)
- Transit and commuter benefits
- Ongoing clinical training and supervision
- Supportive, mission-aligned team culture
Why Clinicians Choose This Position
This role is ideal for someone who wants:
- Meaningful, high-impact work in NYC's behavioral health system
- Autonomy and flexibility in the field
- A supportive clinical team with strong supervision
- Career growth in crisis intervention, community mental health, and mobile outreach
You'll play a vital part in helping adults move from instability to safety, connection, and long-term stability, work that truly matters.
Job Type: Full-time
Pay: $76,900.00 per year
Benefits:
