SoLuna Mental Wellness•The Woodlands, TX

15h

About The Position

The Director of Clinical Excellence is SoLuna’s clinical leader, responsible for the clinical pillar across three clinics and a team of 20–40 therapists, supported by a Lead Therapist at each location. This is a clinical leadership role rather than a business operations role, with authority to set standards of care, develop clinicians, and address performance concerns. The Director works as a peer to the Operations and Marketing pillars, bringing the clinical perspective to shared decisions while maintaining a small personal caseload. The role emphasizes a high-warmth, high-expectation, depth-informed approach to care. The Director hires, supports, and mentors Lead Therapists and clinicians; leads onboarding, training, and professional development; promotes sustainable practice; and helps maintain a warm, welcoming clinical culture. A background in or curiosity about depth psychology is a meaningful plus. SoLuna Mental Wellness is an independently owned, multi-clinic practice rooted in Houston, Texas. It provides talk therapy, psychological assessments, and psychiatric services, and describes itself as an in-person community rather than a franchise or remote-only platform.
