About The Position

School-Based Therapist Calling All >>>>>> Counselors and Social Workers-- Help us reach out and make a difference in the lives of children at Kids Thrive. FT, PT, and PRN Positions Available Shift: 8-Hour Shifts, Monday – Friday, 8am-4:30pm NO WEEKENDS! Awesome Pay and Benefits. Kids Thrive is currently seeking experienced Therapists to work in a Pediatric Mental Health Program providing care and treatment to clients ages 3 to 10 in a school-based setting. Previous experience working with children is preferred. In this role you will be working inside of a school setting, many times inside of different classrooms. Our compassionate therapists at Kids Thrive specialize in supporting a high-acuity early childhood population. With a focus on both group and individual services, our dedicated professionals provide a safe and nurturing environment where young minds can flourish. Who we are As parents, we see the potential in our little ones, from the youngest age. As they grow, we endeavor to instill the life skills needed to lead a balanced and productive life. Oftentimes, however, our environment, genetics, or trauma, threaten that growth. It is then that we must envelop our littles ones with a robust therapeutic environment to foster those vital skills. Much like the caterpillar tethered to the ground, yearning to transform into a butterfly, it must be nurtured in a cocoon until it is ready to emerge into its full potential. At Kids Thrive, we create a safe and therapeutic cocoon, surrounding each child with an intensive degree of individual treatment sessions and group therapy, enabling the child to assist each child with building relationships, repairing regulation, and improving their behaviors. It is our honor to be a part of fostering the beauty innate in each child, enabling them to take flight and thrive; in school, at home and in life.
