Careers
at Heart and Mind Therapy
A regulation-informed, relationship-centered practice
Before You Apply
We encourage you to read through this page. Our goal is not just to fill positions—but to find clinicians who align with how we understand and approach therapy.
At Heart and Mind, strong alignment in philosophy and approach leads to better experiences for both clinicians and clients. This page is designed to help you determine whether this is the right fit for you—and whether you are the right fit for our team.
Our Approach to Therapy
We are a regulation-informed practice.
We view clients as the experts in their own lives. Therapy is about supporting their goals—not imposing our own beliefs, values, or agenda.
We prioritize connection, regulation, and understanding—not just symptom reduction.
Our work is grounded in:
-
Developmental trauma
-
Polyvagal theory
-
Attachment and relational care
-
Adoption-informed perspectives
We support clinicians in building a therapeutic toolbox that fits them—while maintaining a shared philosophy that creates a cohesive client experience across our practice.
Independent Roles. Shared Philosophy.
At Heart and Mind, interns, residents, and licensed clinicians each have distinct roles and goals. These are not automatic pipelines or guaranteed transitions.
Some clinicians stay and grow within the practice.
Some move into private practice or other paths.
All paths are valid—but what matters most here is alignment in how we understand and work with clients.
We are not a one-size-fits-all group of clinicians.
We are a shared-philosophy, varied-style practice.
