Intensive In-Community Therapist IIC

If you entered this field to do deep, transformative clinical work but feel bogged down by administrative chaos, lack of supervision, or stagnant pay, we built Mental Healthcare Connections of New Jersey, LLC (MHCNJ) for you.

We know what matters to a dedicated therapist: real clinical autonomy, responsive leadership, structured systems that protect your time, and clear avenues for professional growth. We are actively expanding our team within the New Jersey Children’s System of Care (CSOC) and are looking for motivated clinicians who are passionate about meeting youth and families right where they are.

Whether you are an experienced Clinician looking for a highly competitive rate or an entry-level professional looking for a structured launchpad, we provide the environment you need to thrive.

The MHCNJ Advantage

• Highly Competitive & Transparent Pay: We offer premium hourly rates based entirely on your license level and clinical experience.
• Guaranteed Professional Growth: Complete your initial 90-day probationary period successfully, and you will receive a fixed hourly rate increase (tied to a Professional Agreement Clause outlining our shared standards for documentation, communication, and clinical excellence).
• Invested Clinical Supervision: For our LSWs and LACs, we don't just sign off on hours—we provide high-quality, intentional Clinical Supervision toward your LCSW/LPC to sharpen your clinical lens.
• Real Flexibility: Build a caseload that fits your life. You manage your schedule, allowing you to balance clinical passion with personal well-being.

Your Impact

As an IIC Therapist, you will bypass the clinical limitations of a sterile office setting and work directly in the environment where real change happens. Your day-to-day will involve:

• Providing high-impact, short-term therapeutic interventions to youth and families within their homes and communities.
• Designing and implementing creative, individualized treatment plans that foster emotional regulation, coping mechanisms, and behavioral growth.
• Collaborating as a vital team member alongside Care Managers, family support organizations, and the broader treatment team.
• Maintaining crisp clinical documentation, ensuring progress notes are submitted within 72 hours so that care remains seamless.

What You Bring to the Team

We value clinical curiosity, accountability, and a genuine heart for systemic family work. To join us, you must have:

• An Active NJ License: LCSW, LSW, LPC, or LAC (Certified Behavioral Assistants with strong clinical trajectories are also welcome).
• A Passion for Youth: Prior experience with children and adolescents is highly preferred, but a strong desire to learn and grow in this space is essential.
• Autonomy & Communication: The ability to work independently in the field while maintaining strong, reliable communication with our leadership team.
• Logistics: A reliable vehicle and valid driver’s license to travel to families within Ocean or Mercer County.
