About the role

Ministry Foundation:

Adult & Teen Challenge PacWest is committed to facilitating life transformation through a Christ-centered, comprehensive approach. We are guided by our vision, Putting Hope Within Reach Until All Live Free . Our culture is marked by godly ambition, compassion, vision, and accountable leadership. Strengthened by our values of faith, integrity, stewardship, and synergy. Together, these qualities create an environment where lasting change is nurtured and sustained. Our program offers a Comprehensive Approach to recovery that includes the Residential Discipleship Program and the Vocation Training Program, the Hope Outreach Program, and Behavioral Health Services through Life Renewal 

Life Renewal is looking for a senior clinical leader ready to shape behavioral health care across an entire region — not just at one site. This is not a caseload job. It's a seat at the leadership table, with the authority to set clinical standards, build infrastructure, and drive outcomes for individual and group therapy, family support, and trauma-informed care across six states.

If you're a licensed clinician who has outgrown the day-to-day caseload and is ready to lead supervisors, shape policy, and build something that lasts — and you want your clinical expertise to serve a Christ-centered mission of life transformation — we want to hear from you.

About Life Renewal 

Life Renewal provides professional, state-certified counseling and mental health services as part of Adult & Teen Challenge PacWest's comprehensive, Christ-centered approach to recovery. We partner closely with ATC's residential discipleship and Super Thrift programs to deliver holistic care tailored to each client's unique needs — guided by our vision of putting hope within reach until all live free.

The Role
Reporting to the VP of Clinical Services, the Clinical Director owns the integrity, quality, regulatory compliance, and clinical effectiveness of every Life Renewal program across Oregon, Washington, Montana, Idaho, Alaska, and Hawaii. Rather than carrying a primary caseload, you'll lead through clinical supervisors, program managers, and site staff — setting the standard of care and building the systems that let great clinicians do great work at scale.
