Job Description - Child/Adolescent Therapist- Selective Mutism Specialty Track Position

Join Thriving Minds: Develop a Rare Specialty in Selective Mutism & Transform Lives in Pediatric Behavioral Health



Psychologist or Clinical Social Worker – Specialty Track Position
Ada, Michigan (near Grand Rapids) | Relocation Welcome



Do you aspire to develop true expertise in a high-impact pediatric specialty and become known for your work in Selective Mutism?



Thriving Minds is a well-regarded pediatric psychology practice and recognized center of excellence for the assessment and treatment of Selective Mutism. We are seeking a motivated psychologist or clinical social worker to join our Ada, Michigan clinic in a specialty-track role focused on building advanced competency and long-term leadership in Selective Mutism treatment.



This position is ideal for a clinician who is passionate about evidence-based care, eager for mentorship, and excited about becoming deeply skilled in a niche area of pediatric mental health.



About Thriving Minds


Thriving Minds provides compassionate, research-backed treatment to children and adolescents across our clinics in Brighton, Livonia, Chelsea, and Ada, Michigan. Our Ada clinic is a large, fully equipped facility designed to support specialized care and collaborative work. We are known for our supportive culture, strong referral base, and commitment to clinician growth.

  • Ongoing training and mentorship from senior clinicians with nationally-recognized expertise in SM

  • Opportunity to shape and grow SM treatment services within the Ada clinic

  • Clear potential for program development over time

  • Ability to build a specialty-focused caseload rather than remaining a generalist



If you have ever thought, “I want to become truly excellent at one thing,” this role was created for you.



Your Role



  • Provide evidence-based therapy to children and adolescents (ages 3–20)

  • Maintain a caseload of approximately 20–25 clients

  • Focus on the assessment and treatment of Selective Mutism, along with anxiety, OCD, ADHD, depression, and behavioral challenges

  • Coach and support parents throughout treatment

  • Collaborate with schools and provide consultation to educators and staff

  • Engage in ongoing learning and consultation



Compensation & Benefits



  • Competitive salary range: $70,000 – $100,000+ annually

  • Group health insurance and HSA

  • 401k with matching

  • Paid time off

  • Consistent client referrals, including strong Selective Mutism focus

  • Administrative support for billing and scheduling

  • Monthly group consultations

  • Flexible scheduling

  • Bonus opportunities

  • Supervision provided (if needed)



Qualifications



  • Master’s or Doctoral degree in psychology or social work

  • Must hold (or be eligible for) Michigan LP, LLP, TLLP, LMSW

  • Training and experience in CBT/behavioral therapy and parent-focused interventions

  • Passion for working with children and families

  • Experience with Selective Mutism preferred, but not required—Thriving Minds provides extensive training and mentorship to develop expertise



Relocation


We welcome applicants from outside the area who are interested in relocating for this unique specialty opportunity. Ada/Grand Rapids offers a high quality of life, vibrant community, close proximity to lakes, and affordable cost of living.



If you are seeking a meaningful, growth-oriented position where you can build a lasting specialty and make a profound impact, we would love to hear from you.
