Who are we?
Since 1920, our culture at Catholic Charities has been defined by our mission to “provide service to those in need, to advocate for justice and to call upon others to do the same.” We provide several social services that focus on serving the poor, vulnerable, and marginalized in communities across the 10 counties of Southeastern Wisconsin.
A career at Catholic Charities blends social service with professional development. Our staff is made up of a diverse group of passionate individuals who are committed to serving clients of all faiths and backgrounds. We are a proud recipient of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Top Workplaces award, for 2016, 2017, 2018, 2020, 2021.
What is the purpose of our Behavioral Health Services?
At Catholic Charities, our Behavioral Health Services serve the mental health needs of the poor and underserved. Our team of therapists help individuals, couples, and families overcome emotional distress and trauma. We recognize the added challenges of people living in poverty and accept patients who do not have any means to pay, as well as those with limited resources, on a sliding fee scale adjusted to an individual’s or family’s size and financial situation. Additionally, third party insurance payers, Medicare and Medicaid are accepted.
What will I do as a Therapist at Catholic Charities?
As a Behavioral Health Therapist, you will provide in-office psychotherapy, counseling, and other related services to individuals, couples, families and groups. You will also conduct educational and supportive counseling sessions to groups, including critical incident response services. Our Therapists regularly collaborate with other Programs within the Agency to provide psychotherapy support to achieve both client and Program goals. This position will provide support to the Racine community.
Why should I apply?
This is the perfect opportunity for a qualified, compassionate Therapist looking to address a wide range of diagnoses in the local community for those who often times cannot afford this support elsewhere. If you have a genuine passion for helping the less fortunate and those most in need within our communities reach their goals, you will find fulfillment at Catholic Charities.
Therapists provide in-office services Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, and are supported through ongoing trainings and accreditation, a competitive Health, Dental, and Vision insurance plans, Paid Time Off, Holidays, and 403(b) plan with matching and annual contribution.
What are the requirements?
Candidates are required to have completed either a Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW) or in a related counseling field. Post graduate clinical practice (i.e. LPC, MFT) and 3,000 hour certification is strongly preferred, but is not required as Catholic Charities offers supervision to obtain certification hours. Candidates who have not completed or started their post graduate hours are encouraged to apply, as Supervision is provided. Bilingual Spanish and English is a plus.
