Liberty Resources, Inc. is looking for an engaging clinician who is interested in supporting families in taking on tough challenges and achieve long lasting change through Multisystemic Therapy. We serve families of adolescents, age 12-17, who are engaging in behaviors that are resulting in system consequences and unsafe situations.

Trained and empowered with an evidence-based model, therapists engage the youth’s primary caregiver and other key participants across the systems (the identified youth, family members, school, service providers, etc.) in developing and implementing interventions to

• Improve school attendance and performance
• Increase prosocial connections
• Improve family functioning
• Decrease behaviors such as leaving home without permission, stealing, and aggression, and substance use

We are currently offering a $3, 500 sign-on bonus

Rate of pay: $55, 000 yearly

Common barriers to Families accessing services are removed in the MST model

• Services are provided in homes; eliminating need for transportation or child care
• Sessions are offered around the schedule of caregivers; including evening availability and weekend contact as needed
• Consistent phone support is available to families as they implement challenging interventions; the team works together to provide this coverage
• A short treatment window of 3-5 months makes the program manageable for families

Reasons why therapists choose to work in MST!

• Intensive support- Training and supervision are built right in to the model

• Home-based sessions- Allows for stronger engagement with families and better case conceptualization.
• Small Caseload- Serve 4-6 families at a time.
• No Medicaid- Case contact and paperwork requirements are based on client needs not insurance guidelines.
• Every day is different- Use an array of clinical skills including cognitive behavioral techniques, pragmatic family therapies, family systems theory, behavioral therapies, social ecological model, marital therapy, and contingency management
• Treatment = action! Develop family driven, solution-focused interventions every day.
• Positive work environment- Work with a team that sees the best in families.
• Short treatment window- A 3-5 month treatment duration helps avoid clinician burn out and diminishing returns with families.
