Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT)

Ritenour Counseling is a small group private practice rooted in the belief that effective anxiety treatment transforms lives. Our clinical team works with adults, teens, and couples using evidence-informed approaches in a setting that is professional, growth-oriented, and genuinely supportive. We are looking for an Associate MFT who is ready to build a meaningful caseload and develop their clinical identity within a practice that takes both client outcomes and clinician development seriously.

Our associates are self-starters. They take ownership of their caseloads, engage authentically with clients, and hold themselves to a high clinical standard. In return, Ritenour Counseling provides the infrastructure, supervision, and support you need to grow.
