We are looking for someone who values compassion, communication, clinical excellence, and teamwork and who wants to grow alongside an organization committed to serving its local communities.

• Identify patients who may benefit from additional behavioral health, psychiatric, medical, or community-based services and coordinate appropriate referrals.
• Connect patients and families with community resources and support services when appropriate.
• Maintain patient confidentiality and uphold all applicable ethical, HIPAA, state, and federal requirements.
• Contribute to the continued development and growth of behavioral health services at The Neighborhood Clinic.

Why Join The Neighborhood Clinic?

At The Neighborhood Clinic, we are building more than a healthcare practice—we are creating a collaborative environment where providers can make a meaningful impact in the communities they serve.

Our LPCs have the opportunity to work within an integrated healthcare setting, collaborate closely with other healthcare professionals, and help shape behavioral health services as our organization continues to grow throughout Arizona.

If you are passionate about mental health, value patient-centered care, and are looking for an opportunity where your clinical expertise and ideas are valued, we would love to have you join The Neighborhood Clinic team in Chandler, Mesa, or Tucson.
