Wellness Resources

This role is for the clinician who wants more than a waiting room.

At Chadash, we work with the people who hold the line for everyone else — first responders, military personnel, medical workers, dispatchers, corrections officers, and fellow clinicians. We call them Helpers. They are tough, stoic, often the last ones to ask for help, and deeply rewarding to work with when you're the clinician who knows how to meet them there.

If that excites you rather than intimidates you, keep reading.

What Makes Chadash Different

We are a faith-informed, trauma-specialized practice located on a working farm in Ashland City, Tennessee. Our cottage-style facility offers in-person sessions in a genuinely peaceful, nature-rich setting — not a sterile office park. We believe healing happens in the body and the land, not just the therapy hour.

We are actively building toward an equine-assisted therapy program — and the clinician who joins us now will be part of shaping what that becomes.

What We're Looking For

• Post Grad/ Pre-Licensed who are working towards full licensure in TN as LPC-MHSP or LCSW or LMFT or Equivalent
• Master's or doctoral degree from a CACREP-accredited program (or equivalent)
• Genuine interest in working with high-stress, high-functioning populations
• Strong trauma competency — PTSD, C-PTSD, moral injury, grief, anxiety, burnout
• Compassionate and direct — Helpers need both

Background Check Required

Experience with first responders, military, or medical populations is a plus but not required — we will train the right person.

What You'll Do

• Carry a caseload of 15–25 clients (individuals, couples, and families, ages 16+)
• Deliver sessions in-person at our farm location and/or via telehealth across Tennessee
• Collaborate closely with a small, mission-aligned clinical team
• Participate in monthly trainings and ongoing professional development

What We Offer

• $55,000 - $80,000 (for Pre-licensed, W-2, percent of collections plus group and retreat income shares).
• Company-paid malpractice insurance
• Company-paid credentialling after licensure

Retirement Plan

• Paid First Responder Counselor Certification — you will be equipped to serve this population at the highest level
• Monthly clinical training and professional development
• Flexible, self-scheduling — no Saturday work or Sunday requirements
• A front-row seat to the launch of equine-assisted therapy at Chadash
• A practice culture that takes clinician wellness as seriously as client wellness
• Personal wellness opportunities

Growth Opportunity

Chadash is an established practice with a clear vision and a growing reputation in the Helper community. The clinician who joins now won't be filling a seat — they'll be helping build something. As we expand into equine therapy, group programming, critical incident response, and community training, there is real room to grow into specialty roles and leadership.
