Generalist LPC / LCSW

Responsibilities

In-person, Remote, and Hybrid Opportunities Available! 

St. Louis Behavioral Medicine Institute (SLBMI) is seeking Licensed Professional Counselors and Licensed Clinical Social Workers who are Generalists to join our General Mental Health Program.  We are committed to growth and are always looking to hire exceptional talent to join our team of dedicated healthcare professionals.

Note: Local Candidates in MO preferred, but not required. We are open to eligible candidates located outside of the St. Louis region who may be interested in joining our team through providing telehealth services. Interested candidates for this option must be professionally licensed in Missouri. Remote providers must also be professionally licensed in the state they are residing in. 

Our clinicians enjoy the aspects of being an independent provider that are appealing, while having the administrative and operational support to manage everything else that you need as a provider. Our dedicated and multidisciplinary team of 70+ colleagues are willing to share their clinical expertise for case consultation, continuing education, and program development.  SLBMI prides itself on being a team-oriented environment that thrives on collaboration and providing compassionate behavioral healthcare!

Shift: Monday-Friday, dayshift. Onsite & Remote work available. 

About the General Mental Health Program:

• Clinicians in this program work with patients who do not meet the severity need of treatment presented within our other specialty programs.
• It would be common for clinicians to refer patients to specialty programs, should the need arise. Conversely, clinicians who work within our specialty programs also would refer patients with more general needs to the General Mental Health Program.
• You would therefore be providing general psychotherapy for the treatment of a wide variety of conditions and issues. Common presenting concerns include stress management, depression, adjustment disorders, mood disorders, and substance use disorders.
• The majority of your caseload would be traditional individual outpatient therapy, with opportunity to run outpatient groups.
• We encourage applicants who have additional subspecialty interests and training; however, that is not required within the General Mental Health Program.
• We also allow for tailoring of your caseload, according to your expertise and competencies.
