Career and Training Opportunities

The Parent and Family Wellness Center is often seeking excellent mental health specialists to join our team. We also provide training for interns, externs, recent masters graduates, and practicing clinicians. We are passionate about mentorship and strive to create a unique work culture characterized by thoughtfulness, care, collaboration, and continual growth.

If you do not see a current opening that matches your search, don’t hesitate to reach out and share your interest.

 
  • We’re not just another therapy practice—we’re a mission-driven, radically collaborative, and deeply reflective team of clinicians who believe that the best therapy happens in community. We specialize in perinatal, reproductive, and early family mental health, working with individuals, couples, and families navigating some of life’s biggest transitions.

    We hold the philosophy that no therapist should work in isolation—because just like the families we serve, we thrive when we’re supported. That’s why we build mentorship, self-reflection, and continuous learning into the DNA of our work.

    If you love digging deep into complex clinical work, guiding other therapists to find their voice, and showing up authentically in a team that actually practices what it preaches about connection, you’re in the right place.

    Who You Are

    You’re an experienced clinician who’s done the deep work—on yourself and with your clients—and you know that good therapy is about so much more than just interventions. You understand the nuance of perinatal and reproductive mental health, the messy beauty of early parenting, and the power of relationships in both clinical work and supervision.

    You’re also a natural mentor, the kind of clinician who gets lit up by helping others sharpen their skills, build confidence, and grow into the therapist they’re meant to be. You love collaborating, reflecting, and thinking critically about the work, and you’re the person your colleagues turn to when they need insight on complex cases, ethical gray areas, or just a little validation that this work is hard, but worth it.

    You’re ready for a role where you can keep doing the clinical work you love while also leading, shaping, and mentoring the next generation of perinatal mental health clinicians.

    What You’ll Be Doing

    This is a dual role—you’ll be both a clinician and a mentor, helping PFWC’s team deliver the highest-quality care while guiding newer therapists as they develop their confidence and expertise.

    🔹 Clinical Supervision & Mentorship

    • Provide weekly supervision for early-career and mid-career clinicians, supporting their clinical growth, self-reflection, and case conceptualization.

    • Create a brave space for exploration, feedback, and continuous learning, helping supervisees refine their therapeutic voice while navigating complex cases with confidence.

    • Offer real-time consultation and guidance on high-risk cases, ethical dilemmas, and clinical stuck points.

    • Cultivate a culture of openness, curiosity, and growth, where feedback is a tool for learning, not judgment.

    🔹 Direct Clinical Work

    • Carry a caseload of clients (with a focus on perinatal, reproductive, and early-family wellness) and provide evidence-based, relationship-centered care.

    • Integrate psychodynamic, attachment-based, and trauma-informed approaches while supporting clients in some of the most intense, joyful, and challenging moments of their lives.

    • Collaborate with psychiatrists, medical providers, and other specialists to provide wraparound care.

    • Maintain strong clinical documentation (because good notes = good therapy).

    🔹 Program Development & Leadership

    • Help shape clinical programming, training initiatives, and team development to keep PFWC at the forefront of perinatal mental health care.

    • Contribute to policy-making, ethical conversations, and quality assurance—helping us fine-tune what great clinical care looks like at PFWC.

    • Represent PFWC in the broader mental health community through trainings, workshops, and networking opportunities.

    What You Bring to the Table

    Licensed clinician (LCSW, LMFT, LPC, PhD, PsyD) in Colorado.
    5+ years post-licensure experience, with at least 2 years of supervisory experience.
    Deep expertise in perinatal, reproductive, and early family mental health (or a strong willingness to train to specialize).
    A passion for mentorship—you love helping newer clinicians find their confidence and sharpen their skills.
    ✅ Strong clinical intuition, case conceptualization skills, and ethical decision-making.
    Comfort with reflective practice, creating brave spaces, and integrating a social justice lens  in supervision and therapy.
    ✅ A collaborative, team-first mentality—you want to be part of a tight-knit, supportive clinical community.

    Why You’ll Love Working Here

    💡 A Supervision Culture That’s Actually Supportive – We don’t just talk about it. We live it. You’ll have your own reflective supervision and consultation space, just like your supervisees do.

    🌎 A Radically Collaborative Clinical Team – No silos, no “my clients” vs. “your clients.” We work together, share insights, and have each other’s backs—because therapy is better that way.

    🧑‍🏫 Opportunities to Lead & Shape Clinical Work – This isn’t just another job. It’s a role where you can influence training, programming, and the next generation of perinatal therapists.

    🏡 A Hybrid Work Model That Works for You – We offer a mix of in-person and remote flexibility, so you can balance direct care, supervision, and your own needs.

    💰 Competitive Salary & Meaningful Benefits – Because we believe in paying people well for the important work they do.
