About The Position

Here Now Health is the first virtual behavioral health company built exclusively for children and families impacted by the child welfare system. We serve Medicaid members eligible due to their foster status, including children in foster care, adopted youth, young adults aging out, and those involved in family preservation or juvenile justice. Our care model delivers trauma-informed, high-touch mental health services that prioritize consistency, trust, and accessibility in systems where those qualities are too often missing. Our mission is to make consistent, early, and preventative care the standard for youth and young adults impacted by child welfare — reducing crisis escalation, improving family stability, and creating measurable value for states and Medicaid partners. As a Virtual Licensed Therapist with Here Now Health, you will provide compassionate, trauma-informed mental health care to Medicaid-covered youth and families impacted by foster care and related systems. You will support clients navigating instability, system involvement, and complex trauma, often across multiple placements or life transitions. Our care model centers relational continuity, caregiver support, and evidence-informed clinical practice. You will join a collaborative, mission-driven team focused on transforming how care is delivered to system-impacted youth.
