School Based Therapist South Tama
About The Position
Tanager is hiring a School Based Therapist to serve students and families in South Tama School District. The therapist works alongside school supports to conduct initial assessments, create treatment plans, introduce clients to Tanager services, and provide direct care. Services should be client-centered, strengths-based, professional, and compassionate. The role includes maintaining a client caseload and engaging with school supports, students, and families to promote resilience and overall wellness among students, families, and educators. Tanager serves children and families through prevention, treatment, and outreach programs. The organization offers an established client base, so therapists do not need to recruit families.
