Outpatient Therapist

Licensed Outpatient Therapist-Specialty Focus: First Responders About TLC Wellness TLC Wellness is an outpatient behavioral health practice committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for individuals and families across the lifespan. Our work is rooted in the belief that mental health care should be accessible, human-centered, and deeply connected to the communities we serve. TLC Wellness is a mission-driven nonprofit outpatient practice focused on meaningful, sustainable clinical work. We believe therapists do their best work when they are supported, respected, and given autonomy in their clinical approach. We prioritize sustainable caseload expectations and thoughtful care rather than productivity-driven models. TLC Wellness was built intentionally as a mission-driven program focused on quality care, clinician sustainability, and meaningful relationships with our clients and community partners. We believe strong clinical work happens when therapists are supported, respected, and empowered to practice thoughtfully. As we continue to grow, we are looking for clinicians who share our passion for building something meaningful - not just filling a role, but helping shape the future of a program designed to serve our community with integrity and excellence.
