Hybrid Therapist / Psychologist – Columbia River Gorge Region
Job description
The Role: Advanced Clinical Care in the Gorge
We are seeking a Licensed Clinician, Associate-level Clinician, or Psychologist (PhD/PsyD) to join our team in the Columbia River Gorge. This position is for the provider who wants to move beyond the traditional office and integrate clinical processing with the active landscape of the PNW.
While you will maintain a standard caseload, you will also be trained to utilize Bilateral Kinetic Processing (BKP). This framework layers rhythmic movement—walking, hiking, jogging, or paddling—with bilateral stimulation and cognitive tools (CBT, ACT, CPT) to provide deep nervous system integration for your clients.
Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities (KSA) Focus
Our practice is committed to building a cohort that reflects the rich diversity of the Gorge. We are specifically looking for candidates who bring the following:
Culturally Responsive Representation: We are prioritizing the recruitment of Providers of Color who bring lived experience and a deep understanding of the diverse populations we serve in the Gorge—including our Latinx, Black, and Japanese communities.
Bilingual Proficiency: Professional fluency in Spanish and English is highly valued to bridge critical gaps in care for our local community members.
KSA Pay Differential: To honor the specialized expertise these skills bring to our practice, candidates who meet the Bilingual or Provider of Representation KSA criteria receive an automatic 5% increase across our entire compensation scale.
The Practice Advantage: Focus on Healing, Not Paperwork
White Salmon Office: A physical "home base" for in-person sessions, gear storage, and clinical collaboration.
Comprehensive Admin Support: Our team handles all billing, insurance credentialing, and intake. You are free to focus entirely on your clinical work and research.
Flexible Income Scaling: Our 5-Tiered Compensation System is calculated quarterly, allowing you to scale your caseload (from 5 to 25+ sessions) based on your lifestyle and goals.
Clinical Supervision & Training: We provide full training in BKP and Ecotherapy at no cost. Associates will receive the specialized supervision and mentorship necessary to count these innovative hours toward full licensure.
Research & Growth: Participate in our 2026 study on movement-based healing with an intentional path toward a W2 position.
Qualifications & Safety Requirements
Licensure: Active license (Full or Associate) in Washington and/or Oregon (LCSW/CSWA, LMHC/LMHCA, LMFT/LMFTA, or Psychologist).
Physical Readiness: Ability to facilitate "active" sessions (walking, hiking, or paddling) in various PNW weather conditions.
Wilderness Safety: Current WFA/WFR certification (or willingness to obtain one prior to contract start).
How to Apply
We are looking for a clinician who is ready to pursue a more active, representative way of practicing therapy.
To Apply: Please submit your resume and a brief response to: "How does your identity or lived experience inform your approach to providing care for the diverse communities of the Columbia River Gorge?" to Sign up or sign in for contact information.
