Market context
Behavioral-health openings in Texas often favor licensed clinicians because employers need candidates who can step into patient-facing care with minimal onboarding. Competition is shaped by the required master’s degree, Texas license, and preferred psychiatric experience, plus CPR and CPI certifications.
