You're Not Just Looking for Supervision. You're Looking for a Place to Grow.

At Find Your Balance, Center for Growth & Change, we believe becoming a licensed therapist should be about more than completing hours.

It should be about becoming the kind of clinician clients seek out, colleagues trust, and communities value.

Our mission is to help associate therapists develop exceptional clinical skills while gaining the confidence, mentorship, and real-world experience needed to build a fulfilling and sustainable career.

We believe in investing in our clinicians through meaningful supervision, consistent support, professional accountability, and opportunities for growth.

If you're looking for a place to simply collect hours, we may not be the right fit.

If you're looking for a team that will challenge you, support you, and invest in your future, we'd love to meet you.

Caseload & Accountability Expectations

At Find Your Balance, accountability is part of how we support both our clinicians and our clients.

Clear expectations help ensure clients receive consistent care while giving clinicians the structure and support needed to build a successful practice.

Associate therapists are expected to:

• Build toward and maintain an average caseload of 20 completed clinical sessions per week (40 sessions per pay period)
• Maintain a minimum of 25 available appointment openings each week to support referrals, client rescheduling, insurance issues, and continuity of care
• Provide a consistent weekly schedule that supports ongoing treatment
• Complete all clinical documentation within 24 hours
• Communicate proactively regarding schedule changes, availability, and planned time off
• Engage fully in supervision, coaching, and performance feedback

We recognize that building a caseload takes time. New clinicians receive referrals, mentorship, and ongoing support as they grow into these expectations.

What Success Looks Like

The clinicians who thrive on our team are those who combine clinical excellence with professionalism and accountability.

Successful clinicians:

• Build strong therapeutic relationships
• Deliver compassionate, evidence-based care
• Maintain reliable schedules and consistent client availability
• Complete documentation accurately and on time
• Take ownership of their caseload and professional responsibilities
• Welcome feedback and use supervision to strengthen their clinical skills
• Communicate proactively with clients and colleagues
• Contribute to a collaborative, supportive, and accountable culture
• Demonstrate a commitment to lifelong learning and continuous improvement

Our promise is to provide the support, systems, mentorship, and resources you need to succeed. In return, we ask for professionalism, accountability, ownership, and a commitment to providing exceptional care.
