We’re hiring a trauma-focused therapist to join our group practice in Traverse City, Michigan.

Our work includes EMDR, somatic approaches, parts work (IFS-informed), and Brainspotting, and we are looking for a clinician who feels aligned with this style of depth-oriented therapy.

Fully licensed LMSW or LPC preferred.
Limited-license clinicians may be considered if you are already developing strong clinical skills.

This position begins part-time as the caseload builds and may grow to approximately 20–25 sessions per week.
