Understory Therapy

Careers

We are not taking applications right now.

We are partway through hiring for our associate position and have the candidates we need. What follows is what the role looks like, for whenever we open the next one.

Find flexibility to manage your own caseload, and the stability of being an employee.

There are so many ways to be a therapist. We are interested in helping new clinicians figure out what kind of provider they want to be.

You will have the flexibility to set your own schedule, decide how many clients you want to see, and discover or deepen your areas of specialty.
