    Licensed Student Therapist (School-Based)

    Salt Lake City, UT
    Full-Time or Part-Time

    Make a Direct Impact Where Students Need It Most

    What if you could provide therapy in a setting where it's immediately accessible and deeply needed?

    LivWell Behavioral is expanding into the Salt Lake City area and hiring a licensed clinician to help bring high-quality mental health services directly into schools. This is an opportunity to work closely with students (ages 5–17) in a more connected, community-based model, while also helping build something new in the local market.

    If you're looking for a role that combines meaningful clinical work, autonomy, and the chance to shape a growing program, this could be a strong fit.

    What You'll Be Doing

    • Provide individual therapy to children and adolescents in school-based settings
    • Manage your own caseload from intake through discharge
    • Conduct clinical assessments and diagnoses to guide treatment planning (no formal psychological testing)
    • Develop and adjust individualized treatment plans based on client progress
    • Collaborate with caregivers, school staff, and internal team members
    • Participate in the intake process, helping determine appropriate care
    • Maintain timely documentation and track outcomes

    What We're Looking For

    • Independently licensed clinician (LCSW, LPC, LMFT, or CMHC)
    • Master's degree in a behavioral health field
    • Experience (or strong interest) in working with children, adolescents, and students
    • Ability to assess, diagnose, and treat independently
    • Familiarity with at least one evidence-based modality (CBT, Expressive Arts Therapy, etc.)
    • Organized, collaborative, and comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy

    Nice to Have:

    • Experience in school-based settings or with youth populations
    • Exposure to intake, behavioral assessments, and treatment planning

    Why This Role Stands Out

    • School-based model – provide care where students already are
    • Founding clinician in SLC – help shape how services are delivered locally
    • Strong demand from partnering school districts already investing in services
    • High level of clinical ownership and autonomy
    • Supportive leadership with room for growth and advancement

    Compensation & Benefits

    • Salary: $45,000 – $75,000 (based on experience and job status)
    • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
    • Life insurance
    • 401(k) (no employer match)
    • Paid holidays + 3 **** weeks PTO
    • Performance-based raises and advancement opportunities
