We are looking for someone like you

We are dedicated to being the practice that offers custom mental health care without being constrained by third party payors, hospital policy or agency policy that limits the location, length of session, length of treatment or nature of therapy. We have a long history of offering customized care that fits the patient’s diagnosis and culture instead of being bound by insurance policy limits or other agency restrictions. We use science and patient preference to determine how and when we work with our clients. That means you get to have professional freedom and integrity when you work with our team! You stop wasting time begging third party payors for authorization or persuading your agency that off-site exposure-based and skills-based interventions are safe gold-standard treatments.
Working with us is an adventure. We love learning, giving each other support and feedback to help one another become our better selves at work and at home. We practice what we teach our clients and consider our own self-growth essential. We love taking on challenges and pride ourselves on being willing to take the extra time to figure out how to help treatment refractory clients overcome the obstacles that previously prevented progress. That also means we love learning the newest and latest interventions because we know that not everyone responds equally to evidence-based treatments.
We consider each other our work family. We depend upon each other and value our differences because we know each staff person has unique ways of working and understanding the world that has advantages for clients. We believe we are stronger together because of these differences.
We believe in lifting up our communities. We volunteer, advocate and work hard to improve mental wellness regionally, nationally and internationally through our work with patient advocacy organizations and patient care organizations.

Here is what you need to know about joining our team.

  • We have positions open for both part-time and full-time staff based at our Springfield, Deerfield and Chicago (West Loop) locations that also include telehealth.
  • You must be license eligible or have a current license
  • We welcome anyone on our staff, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, sexual preference, gender or disability
  • We are flexible and you may shift your working hours from full to part-time or vice versa depending on your needs, such as raising a family or attending to healthcare needs.
  • We have a full and generous benefits package for full-time employees
  • Part-time employees are eligible for our Simple IRA benefit with employer contribution and other training opportunities
  • You can grow with our team and build programs, train staff or get involved with public speaking

Then you might love training with us!

The Anxiety Treatment Center of Greater Chicago has been training some of the best anxiety disorder therapists since the 1990’s, many of whom have gone on to establish their own successful practices throughout the United States. You can become part of this tradition of adventure, fun and mentoring if this matches your vibe. If you train with us you can expect to raise your level of knowledge, skill and self-confidence as a professional that will serve you well in any clinical setting.

We focus upon teaching evidence-based interventions that instill practical skills in our patients. Our approach is cognitive behavioral, including third wave CBT interventions and functional analysis of symptoms. Trainees will thus be encouraged to learn how to simultaneously be both collaborative and directive in their style of intervention.
