Job Description

Job description:

Who Are We:

God Restoring Order (GRO) Community is a mental healthcare provider that specializes in trauma recovery services for males of color ages 5 and up. GRO services are grounded in an understanding of the neurological, biological and psychological effects of trauma. GRO services include mental health and wellness, stress management, and community outreach.

Position Summary:

This is a relentless, high-impact role for a driven clinician ready to lead with heart, skill, and discipline.

As an IHBT Family Therapist, you will take on a hybrid role of therapist, case manager, advocate, community builder, and leader—with the goal of helping families heal and thrive. You will provide individual therapy to parents, lead family therapy sessions, and supervise a team of two Quality Mental Health Specialists supporting the same household.

We are seeking individuals with LSW or LPC licensure who are community-driven, detail-oriented, and unapologetically passionate about racial and social justice. This role requires someone with a deep understanding of complex trauma and how it shows up in marginalized families—disrupting relationships, emotional regulation, and long-term stability. Our therapists must be ready to meet families where they are, with clinical skill and an unwavering belief in their capacity for change.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Serve as the primary therapist for the parent or guardian in the family unit
  • Lead and facilitate family therapy sessions using GRO’s relational, phase-based model

  • Schedule and facilitate case consultations with GRO mentors and team members working with the same family
  • Collaborate with schools, probation officers, and other system partners involved in the family’s life
  • Attend weekly group supervision and weekly individual supervision
  • Complete weekly clinical checklists to ensure fidelity and reflect on skill-based implementation
