Breathing Space Psychotherapy is a New York-based mental health practice designed to help clients with trauma histories and anxiety access excellent care. Breathing Space is passionate about honoring clients’ innate wisdom and ability to heal. Our clinicians, who come with their own specialties, are offered training in a variety of modalities to support clients in a body-centered way. We have a commitment to creating a phenomenal work environment to nurture clinical growth.
Our business is growing rapidly, and we now need the help of a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor to join our close-knit and heart-centered team of therapists. We offer a flexible and connected staff experience with administrative support. This is the perfect way to have an experience of private practice without the weight of business details.

Your caseload will be built from our well-established referral networks, along with you promoting yourself on local therapist Facebook groups. We offer Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy as well, and the candidate we hire must be willing and excited to be trained and offer legal psychedelic therapy to clients.
