Join The Team

We're not looking for clinicians who want a place to hide behind clinical neutrality.

Mindful Springs is a radically alive clinical community doing hella good therapy — Brainspotting, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, EMDR, perinatal work, eating disorder recovery — built on a decolonized, non-pathologizing framework that goes beyond a values statement on a website. It is truly how we actually think, talk, supervise, and practice.

If you've ever sat in a case consultation and felt the DSM in the room doing more harm than the diagnosis itself — you already know why we exist.

WHAT "DECOLONIZED" ACTUALLY MEANS HERE

We don't treat distress as a malfunction. We treat it as information — often a completely legitimate response to oppression, trauma, disconnection, or a nervous system that's been carrying more than it was ever meant to carry alone. That's not a tagline. It changes what happens in the room.

It means diagnosis is a key that gets someone through an insurance door — not a definition of who they are or what their healing has to look like.

It means we don't ask clients (or clinicians) to leave their culture, their rage, their grief, or their ancestry at the door because it doesn't fit a Western clinical frame. Curanderismo, collective care, somatic wisdom, lived experience as expertise — these aren't extras here. They're part of how we conceptualize a case.

It means Brainspotting isn't just a modality we offer — it's a lived argument that the body already knows how to heal, and the client's own system, not the clinician's interpretation, gets to lead.

It means our supervision culture pushes on the field itself — why "evidence-based" got defined the way it did, who that definition was built to serve, and what gets lost when depth work gets flattened into something insurance can code cleanly.

If this is the kind of thinking you've been doing quietly on your own, or the kind of therapist you've been afraid to fully become inside a more traditional practice — this is where that gets to be normal instead of radical.

WHAT YOU'RE ACTUALLY JOINING

Not a service. A community of clinicians who take this work — and each other — seriously.

- Consultation groups where people actually go deep, not just staff a caseload out loud

- Supervision that treats your clinical intuition as data, not a liability to manage

- Colleagues doing genuinely rare-level work in Brainspotting, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, perinatal mental health, eating disorder recovery, and depth-oriented trauma treatment

- Ongoing training that keeps pushing the edge of the field, not just meeting CE requirements

- A place where your own healing work and your clinical work are allowed to inform each other

WHO THRIVES HERE

You already know who you are as a clinician. You're not looking for a script — you're looking for a room full of people who won't flatten what you already know in your body to be true. You're ready to do serious, sometimes uncomfortable, always honest work — with clients, in consultation, and with yourself.

We're currently hiring fully licensed (CO/ IL) and provisionally licensed therapists — with 1099 or W2, fully remote or hybrid options— with training or real interest in Brainspotting, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, perinatal mental health, couples and family work, eating disorder recovery, or holistic/mindfulness-based practice. Some evening/weekend availability required.

INTERNS AT MINDFUL SPRINGS

Most internships train you to survive the field as it exists. Ours trains you to help build what it becomes next.

You'll be mentored inside a radically alive clinical community — supervision that treats your clinical instincts as data worth developing, not noise to correct. You'll get real exposure to depth-oriented work most interns never touch this early: Brainspotting, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, perinatal mental health, eating disorder recovery — taught by clinicians who actually practice at that level, not just supervise from a textbook.

You'll learn to hold diagnosis as a tool, not a verdict. To see distress as intelligent, not disordered. To bring your own culture, body, and lived knowing into the room instead of leaving it at the door for the sake of "clinical neutrality."

If you're the kind of trainee who's already questioning what "evidence-based" really means and who it was built to serve — you're exactly who we're looking for.

Open to master's-level (counseling, social work, MFT) and doctoral-level (PsyD/PhD) students with prior related professional experience. We ask for 8–12 direct clinical hours per week, with a total commitment of 12–18 hours per week including supervision, documentation, and training.

We accept a limited number of clinical interns each semester.

Mindful Springs is committed to diversity and knowing that we are better off welcoming and learning from people of other backgrounds, cultures, races, sexual orientations etc who share different perspectives to honor inclusivity, knowing each human being is a a unique expression and has something to offer. We believe that growing and expanding beyond "traditional", patriarchal, racist, sexist and other dominant societal structures is best for our society as a whole. We hold space for, accept, and honor the unique experiences of BIPOC individuals and are also proud to be an LGBTQIA+ affirming and inclusive practice.
