Job Description

Home-Based Therapist Position Openings in Merrillville & Crown Point, Indiana. Must reside within an hour distance.
Would you thrive in a supportive team environment? Learning and growing every day? Working with a small caseload of families?
You will receive ongoing team support, training, and supervision in the Multisystemic Therapy (MST) model as you work holistically with families, youth, their communities, and other key members of their ecology to implement MST.
Extensive research has proven the effectiveness of MST. MST therapists work in close collaboration with all involved to address the needs of youth who engage in problematic and criminal behaviors and, in some cases, substance abuse.
You will empower families to address problematic behaviors and to help their youth ages 12 17 make life-transforming changes.
Treatment progress is made through intensive interventions such as changing unhelpful family interactions, addressing the youth’s problems with peers and in school, and increasing social support, to name a few.
For more information on multisystemic therapy, please watch this video : How Does MST Work?
