About The Position

St. Louis Behavioral Medicine Institute (SLBMI) is seeking Licensed Professional Counselors and Licensed Clinical Social Workers with expertise and a passion in the area of OCD/anxiety disorders. This position is within our Center for Obsessive-Compulsive and Anxiety-Related Disorders (COARD), which provides specialty evidence-based assessment and treatment for a full spectrum of anxiety and obsessive-compulsive-related conditions. Treatment is provided within both a traditional outpatient behavioral health setting as well as an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). Therapists in the program carry their own individual outpatient caseload and may also provide treatment to patients within the specialty IOP program, if desired. Outpatient caseloads are tailored to the therapist's unique areas of expertise as well as their clinical interests. Therapists within COARD may treat anxiety/obsessive-compulsive disorders exclusively or can elect to treat conditions that extend outside of this domain (for example, treating eating disorders, health psychology-related conditions, etc). Therapists are afforded the opportunity to regularly engage in professional consultation and education with other COARD team members in a setting that is engaging, collegial, and enjoyable. As a full-time employee of SLBMI, we offer a centralized intake office that screens and schedules a steady flow of clients for clinicians; an efficient and professionally run billing service; marketing support; assistance in managing managed care, including credentialing, and consultation on practice development; the ability to build a diverse caseload around your different areas of interest and specialization, which could include behavior health conditions that fall outside of your Program focus; schedule flexibility to help achieve your lifestyle preferences, while still maintaining an active patient caseload and participating in your specialty program needs; compensation financial plan based upon percentage of net cash collections, allowing you to have more independence in your practice while earning competitive compensation. Such a model allows for the ability to earn more if you desire to have a larger caseload; a multidisciplinary team 70+ excellent colleagues willing to share their clinical expertise for case consultation, continuing education, and program development; opportunities for clinical presentations/speaking opportunities, consultations, research; opportunities to attend weekly training seminars as well as longer, more formal training seminars that occur several times per year (SLBMI is approved by the American Psychological Association to sponsor continuing education for psychologists).
