Mental Health Clinician I
Description
Relationship Counseling Center of California (RCCofCA) is seeking an associate therapist (ACSW, AMFT, or APCC) to join our identity-affirming and trauma-informed group practice. This full-time role is ideal for clinicians who want meaningful clinical work, flexibility, and strong supervision; without crisis work, on-call expectations, or burnout culture. You’ll work with engaged, low-to-moderate acuity clients in a hybrid setting, supported by clear systems, collaborative teammates, and leadership that values communication, accountability, and sustainable practice.
The Vibe
RCCofCA is an identity-affirming, trauma-informed, relationship-centered group practice built for clinicians who want to do real work without burning themselves out. We serve thoughtful, engaged clients (mostly low–moderate acuity), and we’re big on doing therapy that’s ethical, affirming, and sustainable.
We’re hiring associate therapists (ACSW, AMFT, APCC) who want flexibility, solid supervision, and a team that actually communicates. No on-call. No crisis work. No “just push through” culture.
If you want autonomy and support, this might be your spot.

What You’ll Actually Be Doing
Clinical Work

- Complete documentation on time (intakes, notes, tx plans, discharges)
- Collaborate when clinically appropriate (PCPs, psychiatrists, etc.)
- Practice ethically, thoughtfully, and within your scope
The Team
We’re a small practice, so how you show up counts.
We’re looking for clinicians who:
- Communicate clearly (and kindly)
- Ask questions instead of guessing
- Follow through on commitments
- Offer and receive feedback with professionalism and humility
- Care about the team, not just their caseload
Basically: be solid, be accountable, don’t be a lone wolf.
You’re Probably a Good Fit If You…
- Are registered (or application submitted) as an ACSW, AMFT, or APCC in California
- Want 25 clinical hours/week
- Are comfortable working independently with supervision & consultation
- Have experience in individuals and/or couples
- Can manage your schedule, documentation, and communication responsibly
- Are open to in-person sessions when clinically needed
- Value flexibility and structure
Nice-to-haves (not required):
- Bilingual (Spanish, Hmong, Hindi, Arabic)
- Interest in EMDR, ACT, DBT, EFT, attachment-based work
- Desire to run groups or workshops someday
What We Offer
- Paid clinical supervision (legit support, not checkbox supervision)
- Training support + financial assistance for approved modalities
- HIPAA-compliant EHR + systems (SimplePractice and Google Workspace)
- Marketing + referrals handled by the practice
- Flexible scheduling that actually respects your life
- A clear path to stay post-licensure
This Is Not the Right Role If You…
- Want to be disengaged, not collaborative with colleagues in office.
- Avoid accountability
- Are planning to open your own practice in the near future
- Struggle with documentation or communication follow-through
No judgment, just alignment.
Why RCCofCA
We believe therapy works best when clinicians are supported, trusted, and not overextended. Our practice is affirming, trauma-informed, and values-driven, and also practical. We care about systems, boundaries, and sustainability just as much as we do about clinical depth.
We’re building something intentional. If that resonates, we’d love to hear from you.
