Job description
Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC/LPC)
Psychological Services Team | Speech Tactics
Overview
Speech Tactics is a leading pediatric interdisciplinary therapy organization serving children and families through speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, ABA, and psychological services. We believe therapy is not transactional- it is transformational. Our model integrates the whole child, the whole family, and the broader systems that shape development.
We are seeking a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC/LPC) who is clinically strong, diagnostically precise, and committed to thoughtful case conceptualization. This is not a "clock in, provide sessions, clock out" position. This role is for a clinician who thinks critically, formulates beyond surface symptoms, and understands that accurate diagnosis shapes a child's entire trajectory.
The ideal candidate is confident in DSM-5-TR diagnosis, skilled in comprehensive diagnostic intakes, and grounded in a clearly articulated theoretical orientation (CBT, play therapy, attachment-based, trauma-informed, or related models). The candidate should value interdisciplinary collaboration and see therapy as part of a larger ecosystem of care.
If you are a clinician who enjoys differential diagnosis, developmental formulation, systemic thinking, and meaningful impact- this role was built for you.
Core Responsibilities
Conduct comprehensive diagnostic intakes for children and adolescents
Develop clear, evidence-based case conceptualizations
Assign DSM-5-TR diagnoses with accuracy and clinical integrity
Provide individual, family, and parent-support therapy services
Collaborate with speech therapists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, ABA providers, and psychologists
Participate in interdisciplinary team meetings and shared care planning
Provide clinical recommendations that consider educational, medical, and family systems
Contribute to program development and innovation within Psychological Services
Maintain timely, compliant, and high-quality documentation
Clinical Expectations
Demonstrate strong diagnostic reasoning and differential diagnosis skills
Conceptualize beyond presenting symptoms to understand developmental, relational, and environmental influences
Practice from a clearly defined theoretical orientation and articulate how it informs treatment planning
Deliver culturally responsive and family-centered care
Uphold high ethical standards and diagnostic precision
Engage parents as partners in the therapeutic process
Seek consultation when clinically appropriate
Remain committed to continued professional growth and advanced training
Qualifications
Active LMHC or LPC license in the state of North Carolina
Master's degree in Counseling or related mental health field
Demonstrated experience conducting diagnostic intakes and assigning DSM-5-TR diagnoses
Experience working with children, adolescents, and families
Strong clinical documentation and case formulation skills
Ability to work collaboratively within an interdisciplinary pediatric setting
Preferred Qualifications
Experience working with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and developmental differences
Training in play therapy, trauma-informed care, attachment-based therapy, or CBT
Bilingual (English/Spanish) strongly preferred
Experience in interdisciplinary or pediatric medical settings
Interest in future supervision, leadership, or program development
Cultural Fit | Core Values Alignment
At Speech Tactics, we hire and lead through our core values:
Integrity – You practice ethical, precise, and thoughtful clinical care.
Growth – You are committed to expanding your clinical depth and impact.
Compassion – You see the child beyond the diagnosis and honor the family journey.
Community – You collaborate and contribute within a multidisciplinary team.
Empowerment – You equip families with knowledge, clarity, and confidence.
Service – You approach your work as meaningful, mission-driven service.
We are building something bigger than traditional therapy. We are building a center where children and families receive comprehensive, coordinated care that changes long-term outcomes.
