About The Position

The Clinical Supervisor is a Multisystemic Therapy (MST) Supervisor for an intensive, family- and community-based treatment program serving youth and adolescents, typically ages 12 to 17, with serious behavioral, delinquent, or antisocial problems. MST uses close collaboration and intensive interventions—including skill building, changing unhelpful family interactions, and increasing social support—to help families address challenging behavior and support lasting changes for youth. Services may address juvenile criminal offenses and, in some cases, substance abuse. The role provides clinical and administrative supervision to BBS-registered staff and student interns, including individual and group supervision, assessment guidance, training, and consultation. The supervisor supports a two-therapist MST team, collaborates with schools and other stakeholders, and helps ensure adherence to MST principles, clinician competency, and client clinical needs. The supervisor may also provide MST to one or two families or clinical coverage when program needs require it. Compensation is $44.00 to $46.00 per hour. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision insurance options; HSA-eligible medical plans; health care and dependent care FSAs; a 401(k) plan; employer-paid life and AD&D insurance; long-term disability and voluntary short-term disability options; an EAP; voluntary supplemental insurance; an employee referral bonus program; paid time off and holidays; and ongoing training, professional development, and career growth opportunities.
