Careers at CCIH

The Chicago Center for Integration & Healing is a group practice of clinicians committed to trauma-informed care, and is a leader in providing training on trauma to mental health providers in the Chicago area.

At CCIH, we believe there is no one right way to be a trauma informed provider. We practice an integrated approach and support our clinicians in finding their own authentic approach to healing. We also believe that being trauma-informed necessarily includes understanding and challenging the systems of oppression that harm individuals and communities, and we work continually to maintain a collaborative workplace that is equitable to all. 

We are seeking an experienced therapist to join our clinical community. This position is ideal for someone who is interested in deepening into their clinical practice within the context of a vibrant supportive community.  We can also offer opportunities and support to applicants who wish to develop their own clinical voice by supervising other clinicians and/or developing workshops or trainings.
