Associate Therapist / Licensed Therapist
Oasis Eating Recovery, Fresno, CA, United States
Description
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE POSITION
This is more than a clinical role. It's a chance to be present at the moments that change lives — and to grow into the therapist you’re meant to become.
We believe in a simple but powerful vision: a community where everyone has access to the mental health care they need and deserve. Across our full continuum of care — PHP, IOP, residential, dual diagnosis, eating disorder, and adolescent services — our mission is clear: alleviate suffering, restore hope, and create lasting change for individuals, families, and communities.
Who we're looking for
You're a developing clinician who wants more than a caseload — you want mentorship, clinical depth, and work that actually matters. You thrive in fast-paced, collaborative environments. You're energized by complexity, not intimidated by it.
Great clinical work doesn't happen by accident — it's developed, supported, and continuously strengthened.
At Tatum, we invest in our therapists through structured supervision, in-house training, and a team culture built around clinical excellence. You'll work alongside case managers, medical staff, and experienced clinicians — with real support at every step. You need clinical curiosity, an interest in the eating disorder population, and the willingness to learn a specialized area of care that most clinicians never fully develop. We'll invest in the rest.
Schedule: Monday - Friday 8:30am - 5:00pm
What You’ll Do
Direct Clinical Care
Provide individual, group, family, and couples therapy to adolescent and adult clients in eating disorder programming
Provide eating disorder care that is grounded in a Health at Every Size framework
Support clients navigating the psychological, relational, and behavioral dimensions of eating disorders alongside co-occurring mental health conditions
Deliver crisis intervention and stabilization when needed
Monitor client progress and adjust treatment approaches in collaboration with a multidisciplinary clinical team
Deliver care grounded in evidence-based approaches including
DBT, CBT, FBT, IFS, Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) and trauma-informed care.
Assessment & Treatment Planning
Conduct comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments with attention to eating disorder history, medical status, and co-occurring presentations
Develop individualized, clinically appropriate treatment plans
Evaluate level of care needs based on medical necessity
Support discharge planning to promote long‑term success
Documentation & Clinical Integrity
Complete progress notes, treatment plans, and discharge summaries in a timely manner
Ensure documentation meets regulatory, ethical, and insurance standards
Maintain accuracy, clarity, and clinical justification in all records
Collaboration & Team-Based Care
Work closely with dietitians, medical staff, case managers, and clinical leadership as part of a true multidisciplinary team
Participate in case consultations and team meetings — eating disorder care is team care
Coordinate care with admissions and administrative teams to support smooth client transitions
Growth & Professional Development
Engage in supervision and ongoing clinical development with experienced eating disorder clinicians
Access in‑house training specific to eating disorder treatment, adolescent care, and evidence‑based modalities
Build specialized clinical knowledge in a population that needs skilled, committed therapists
Why this role is different
You’ll work across a full continuum of care — which means you’ll actually see where clients go, how they progress, and what makes the difference at each level
You’ll work with both adolescents and adults — building range across developmental stages, family systems, and clinical presentations
You’ll be part of a collaborative clinical team that consults together, challenges each other, and takes the work seriously
You’ll gain exposure to complex, diverse populations and clinical presentations
You’ll be supervised and supported in a way that develops your clinical identity, not just your hours toward licensure
What We’re Looking For
A developing clinician with an interest in eating disorders, body image, or adolescent mental health — prior specialization not required
Someone who values both
clinical quality and human connection
Strong communication, organization, and documentation skills
The ability to stay grounded and thoughtful in a fast‑paced, team‑based environment
A commitment to ethical, culturally responsive, and compassionate care
Why join us
A lot of places say they invest in their clinicians. We mean it structurally — through supervision, in‑house training, case consultation, and a team culture where asking hard clinical questions is expected, not avoided.
TPEG exists because the Central Valley needs and deserves a continuum of behavioral health care. The programs we've built serve people who often have nowhere else to go. That's not a marketing line — it shapes how we show up every day.
You’ll grow here. You’ll be challenged here. You’ll know that the work you’re doing matters. You belong here.
