National Director of Mental Health Clinical Excellence

WHY THRIVE THERAPIES

Thrive Therapies Group is a tech-enabled pediatric healthcare company delivering specialized clinical care to children with disabilities and those facing barriers to access. We deliver our care where it changes outcomes fastest — inside the schools and districts where children spend their days — partnering directly with district leaders to integrate evidence-based services into the school day. Every clinician under our banner is part of a unified clinical model, accountable to a single national standard of care, working from a shared platform built specifically for the children we serve.

At the center of our model is Thrive Clinical, our purpose-built EHR designed from the ground up for pediatric clinical care in school settings. Thrive Clinical is not a generic documentation platform retrofitted for schools. It was built to track student progress, measure symptom reduction and functional gains, capture rich clinical data, and give providers and leaders real-time insight into whether kids are actually getting better. It is the operational backbone of everything we do, and it gets smarter as the clinicians and leaders using it push it forward.

We are growing rapidly because the need is staggering and largely unmet. Across the country, children are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral crises with no clear path to care inside their schools. Districts are overwhelmed, referral pipelines are broken, and the clinicians who could help are stretched too thin or trained in approaches that were never built for this population or this setting. We are building the alternative: a clinically excellent, technology-enabled mental health model designed to scale without compromising the depth or quality of care any individual child receives.

The National Director of Mental Health Clinical Excellence Clinical Excellence is the architect of that standard.

THE ROLE 

This is not a supervisory role in the traditional sense. The National Director of Mental Health Clinical Excellence Clinical Excellence is a senior leadership position responsible for defining, building, and driving Thrive's national standard of practice across school psychology and educational diagnostics. You are not managing a single region. You are setting the clinical bar that every Thrive school psychologist is measured against, in every school, in every state, across every market we operate or will operate.

Reporting to the Chief Clinical Officer, you will lead and develop the layer of Clinical Supervisors who deliver high-touch supervision to pre-licensed LCSWs, clinical social work residents, and tiered providers across our regional markets. They are the coaches on the ground. You are the one who decides what they are coaching toward. You build the playbook. You establish the benchmarks. You define what excellent clinical mental health practice looks like at Thrive nationally, and you make sure it holds consistently across a footprint that spans the country and is growing by the month.

Because we own our clinical platform, you will also serve as a primary clinical voice in the evolution of Thrive Clinical, partnering closely with product and engineering to shape how the platform measures, supports, and accelerates excellent mental health care. This is not a courtesy seat at the table. You will own clinical requirements for defined areas of the product roadmap.
