Influents Innovations is expanding services to include a new mental health research clinic that focuses on prevention and early intervention for serious mental illness. We specialize in early intervention, coordinated care for psychosis, serving individuals aged 12-35 years old. However, we serve all ages experiencing a range of serious mental illness symptoms associated with diagnoses such as Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, and Major Depressive Disorder. Clinic service offerings: screening and referral, diagnostics, psychotherapy, prescribing, vocational/educational counseling, and peer support (coming soon).

They must be working toward licensure in the State of Oregon as a Professional Counselor (LPC), Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT), or Psychologist.

As a research clinic, we are continuously engaged in furthering research in prevention and early intervention for serious mental illness.

You will work collaboratively with a small but mighty (and growing!) interdisciplinary team. We are passionate about early intervention in mental health treatment and about working together to impact clinical outcomes and clinical research. We troubleshoot together, support each other, care deeply about each other and our participants, and often learn from each other. We offer a collaborative, flexible, and supportive environment where contributions are rewarded and recognized. We offer an opportunity to engage in projects that use science to transform people’s lives. We offer competitive, equitable wages and a full benefit package including medical, dental, life and disability insurance, 401(k) retirement plan with a generous match, as well as paid vacation, holiday and sick time.
