THE JOBS

DT Therapists (2 openings)

Psychiatric Day Treatment is an intensive five-day-per-week program for children with severe emotional and behavioral issues. Therapists work closely with the teachers, parents, treatment specialists, and community partners to provide a holistic and innovative approach to care for children between the ages of 5 and 13. This program provides an alternative to residential care, allowing children to remain at home during intensive treatment. The average length of stay is 10 months, after which most children successfully transition back to their regular school. The program offers:

individual, group, and family therapy;

regular and special education services; and

individual and group skills training in a therapeutic environment.

 

The children we treat are high acuity and often have experienced extreme trauma. These are vital positions in helping the children learn how to regulate their behavior and emotions, and have the tools to be successful in life. Therapists will be tasked with highly intense mental, verbal, and physical situations and bring a calming presence, set positive professional boundaries, and have previous experience working with children, which is vital.
