Schedule:

As a Licensed Therapist at Valencia Relationship Institute, you will work 15-30 hours per week, beginning in a part-time role with the opportunity to expand to full-time as we build up your caseload. You’ll see clients in person at our Valencia office and, optionally, at our Burbank/Toluca Lake location. We offer a flexible schedule that can align with your availability, but please be prepared to offer some evening and weekend hours as these are the most in-demand openings with our clients.

At VRI, we emphasize work-life balance while also providing the support and resources you need to succeed professionally. We’re looking for a therapist who is excited to meet the needs of our clients and grow with us in a collaborative, team-focused environment.
