Associate Therapist/ECM Consultant

Reports To: Director of Behavioral Health or Behavioral Health Manager. This isn’t your average desk job — and it’s not meant to be. Yes, you’ll enjoy the flexibility of remote work for your telehealth sessions, administrative, and documentation needs. But your greatest impact doesn’t stop at the screen. Step into the community for the moments that truly matter: forging meaningful provider relationships, leading school-based workshops, and showing up at community health events where your presence makes a real difference. We’re looking for a provider who thrives in both worlds — someone who values the autonomy of delivering care virtually and feels called to be a visible champion for our mission in the field. If you’re energized by connection, driven by purpose, and ready to bring care directly to the people who need it most, we want to hear from you. Pacific Health is expanding its team and seeking a highly skilled, compassionate therapist for a hybrid role. This role involves conducting comprehensive assessments, developing individualized treatment plans, delivering evidence-based interventions, and maintaining accurate clinical documentation. The therapist will play a vital role in helping clients achieve their mental health goals and improve their overall well-being. The therapist is required to maintain the confidentiality of client information; write and interpret written clinical information accurately and effectively.
