Join Aurora Mental Health & Recovery (AMHR) and help build something meaningful from the ground up. We are seeking a Licensed Therapist (LCSW, LPC, or LMFT) or Licensed Psychologist to join our newly established Platte Crossing Counseling Center in Commerce City, CO. This is a unique opportunity to become a foundational member of a growing outpatient clinic dedicated to expanding access to high-quality behavioral health services for Adams County residents. As part of a collaborative team of therapists, medical providers, and support staff, you will provide intake and assessment services, individual, family, couples, and group therapy, as well as recovery-focused supports for clients across the lifespan. Services are provided both in person and via telehealth based on client needs.

The ideal candidate is passionate about community mental health, enjoys working with children, adolescents, and adults, and is excited by the opportunity to help shape a new clinic's culture, processes, and growth. Experience providing therapy across age groups and/or supporting individuals with substance use concerns is highly valued, and bilingual Spanish-speaking clinicians are strongly encouraged to apply. If you are flexible, relationship-driven, and motivated to make a lasting impact while helping establish a strong foundation for a growing counseling center, we invite you to bring your expertise and passion to AMHR.
