In Home Therapist MA or BA

NFI Massachusetts Multi-Systemic Therapy (MST) program is looking to hire a dedicated individual motivated to serve in a role that focuses on strengthening family systems, empowering caregivers, and supporting young people to live successfully in their homes.

MST is an evidenced-based in-home treatment model, with extensive research proving its effectiveness. MST therapists do whatever it takes through close collaboration with all individuals involved to help address the needs of adolescents displaying problematic or unsafe behavior such as truancy, running away, criminal involvement, or substance use. Treatment progress is achieved through intensive, strength-based interventions such as skill building, changing unhelpful family interactions, and increasing social support.
