Job Description

Telehealth Therapist | Remote | Licensed in CO or AK | Full-Time

Banyan Treatment Centers is seeking a full-time Telehealth Therapist to join a
clinical team built for growth, delivering IOP-level care to individuals
overcoming substance use and mental health disorders.

This role calls for a clinician who brings strong therapeutic skill and genuine
care to every session, while thriving in a fast-paced, collaborative telehealth
environment. You'll report to the Telehealth Clinical Director, with additional
support from the Head of Telehealth — giving you clinical guidance and
operational backing at every level.

Schedule

There is no single, fixed schedule for this role. Banyan runs both AM and PM
program tracks, and scheduling varies depending on current business and caseload
needs — candidates should expect this to be discussed and confirmed during the
interview process. Current need typically leans toward PM coverage, though this
is subject to change.

About the Company

Banyan Treatment Centers [https://www.banyantreatmentcenter.com/] is a leading
national provider of intensive treatment for individuals facing substance use
and mental health disorders. Backed by TPG's The Rise Funds
[https://www.tpg.com/platforms/impact/the-rise-funds], one of the nation's
largest private equity investors, Banyan is rapidly expanding access to
high-quality, compassionate care. 

Why Join Banyan Treatment Centers?

As a Telehealth Therapist, you will

* Join a mission-driven, nationally recognized organization backed by the

growth.
* Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to provide integrated,
patient-centered care.
* Make a direct, lasting impact on patients during one of the most critical
phases of their recovery.
* Grow professionally within an organization that invests in continuous
learning, mentorship, and career development.
* Be supported in expanding your practice across state lines — we cover the
cost of obtaining additional state licensure where there's a business need.

de-escalation, and suicide risk evaluation — within an outpatient setting.
* Maintain consistent communication with referral sources and families to
support progress and continuity of care.
* Coordinate step-down and discharge planning, connecting patients with
resources for legal, financial, and vocational needs.
