We are a marketing and website agency helping mental health therapists grow their practices through better messaging, strategy, branding, and website design.
We're looking for a creative, strategic, and highly organized Creative Marketing Strategist & Video Editor to help grow our online presence and turn our expertise into engaging, high-performing content across social media, YouTube, and email marketing.
We create educational content for therapists who want to attract more clients, improve their marketing, and grow successful private practices.
This isn't simply a video editing or social media posting role. We're looking for someone who understands what makes content interesting, knows how to capture attention, and can develop strategies that grow an audience and generate interest in our services.
We are an AI-forward company. We actively use tools like Claude and ChatGPT to improve how we work. We want someone who's already experimenting with AI-assisted editing, content creation, and emerging technologies to produce better content more efficiently.
You'll work closely with Heather and Taylor to develop content ideas, edit videos, manage our publishing schedule, create email campaigns, and continually improve our marketing performance.
We're looking for someone who naturally asks:
Why would someone stop scrolling to watch this?
How could we make this hook more compelling?
What can we learn from our best-performing content?
How can we turn one piece of content into multiple valuable assets?
How can AI help us create better content more efficiently?
If you're someone who loves creative storytelling, understands digital marketing, and enjoys turning ideas into content that connects with people, this could be a great fit.

You'll collaborate with a team to develop content ideas, recommend filming topics, and turn raw footage and educational resources into videos, newsletters, emails, blogs, and other marketing assets.
AI will be central to your workflow, supporting research, ideation, editing, repurposing, and content production. Your creativity and ability to recognize what makes content effective will be essential.
This is a fast-paced environment with multiple projects and ongoing content deadlines. You'll need to manage priorities, maintain a consistent publishing schedule, and deliver excellent work efficiently.

Collaborate with Heather, Taylor, and the broader team to support our marketing goals.
