What are the responsibilities and job description for the Mental Health Counselor position at Focus on the Family?
We'd like to partner with you!
As a Contract Therapist, you could have a major impact at Focus on the Family's Hope Restored intensives. You would be working alongside an excellent team of therapists and counselors serving couples in crisis.
These intensives offer a personalized, faith-based program for couples at the breaking point, giving them the safe place and expert help they need to get to the root of their issues — all because of the life-building care provided by therapists like you!
Our approach is proven. Since 2003, more than 6,500 couples have found hope for their marriages, and 80% of couples surveyed are still married two years after their Hope Restored experience.
As we grow, we need more qualified counselors to partner with us as contract therapists.
