About The Position

Vista Counseling is seeking a Central Oregon therapist experienced in substance use and co-occurring disorders who believes recovery is possible.

Annual figures are calculated over 52 weeks and include paid sick leave/PTO. A first-three-month Boost Program guarantees pay at the therapist’s caseload goal, stated as worth up to $19,600–$24,300 for master's-level therapists and $24,800–$27,300 for psychologists.
