Our client is a behavioral health treatment organization in the greater Atlanta, Georgia area offering a comprehensive continuum of care for individuals navigating mental health and substance use conditions. Their programs span Partial Hospitalization (PHP), Intensive Outpatient (IOP), and standard Outpatient levels of care, with a strong emphasis on dual-diagnosis treatment that addresses both psychiatric conditions and substance use together. Their therapeutic approach draws on evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), EMDR, trauma-informed therapy, motivational interviewing, and holistic practices. Among the populations they are deeply committed to serving are veterans and military-connected individuals.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a compassionate, clinically grounded Primary Therapist to join this multidisciplinary team. This is a full-time, on-site role centered on delivering individual and group therapy within a structured, supportive clinical environment. The organization has a strong commitment to serving veterans, and candidates with that clinical background or a personal connection to military service are especially encouraged to apply.
This is a great opportunity for a clinician who is actively working toward full licensure and wants to grow in a setting that takes clinical development seriously.
Who Thrives Here
The clinicians who do their best work in this environment bring both clinical skill and genuine investment in their clients' lives. This includes those who understand the unique barriers veterans face when engaging with behavioral health care - the cultural context, the weight of service-related trauma, the complexity of co-occurring conditions - and who can meet those clients with steadiness, respect, and real clinical skill. If this population matters to you and you show up ready to do the work, this role is worth a serious look.

Provide individual and group therapy using evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches including CBT, DBT, EMDR, and motivational interviewing
Conduct biopsychosocial assessments and contribute to individualized treatment planning
Participate in multidisciplinary treatment team meetings and clinical consultations
