Job Description

About the company

Recover is a startup working to make addiction treatment and mental healthcare more effective, accessible, and affordable. We work with governments to use counseling and medicine to improve outcomes for people who need care.

Our program is for people with substance use and mental health challenges. We use a harm reduction approach to treatment, and are focused on serving marginalized and underserved communities. We are a small team growing quickly, and looking for people to grow with us.

Our team includes people from Yale Law, UCLA School of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, and White House alums.

The opportunity

As a counselor for Recover, you’ll work directly with patients to treat a variety of substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. The majority of your time will be spent providing counseling to adult and adolescent patients in one-on-one, group, and family settings. You will be expected to develop relationships with your patients and help guide them through their recovery journey. You will also collaborate regularly with the rest of the treatment team consisting of the medical director, physicians, nurse practitioners, and case managers to develop and execute comprehensive treatment plans for patients. This position is best suited for someone who is comfortable working independently, will take ownership of patient care, build rapport, and who works well in a collaborative team environment. You’ll have the opportunity to grow with us, and work with patients from across the state.

This role is full time and located in San Diego (locations in North County, South County, and Hillcrest). You will report to Recover's Clinical Director. Salary is commensurate with experience and qualifications, and the position includes benefits. Role is 40 hours / week across 4-5 days.

Need to have:

  • CAADC / LAADC certification valid in California from one of the three state-recognized certifying organizations
  • OR be an AMF / ASW / APCC in need of supervised practice hours
  • 2+ years of experience in mental health and/or substance use treatment

Nice to have:

  • Experience treating addiction
  • Lived experience with substance use
  • Comfortable treating juveniles
  • Experience with telehealth
  • Fluent in Spanish

Culture:

  • Do no harm: We are dedicated to helping all patients, without exception or compromise. If we do not think we can help, we will do our best to find someone who can.
  • Remember the mission: Patients come first – always.
  • Work together: Addiction affects people in every aspect of their life. We need to serve them accordingly.
  • Everyone matters: We believe that best-in-class treatment should be available to everyone regardless of geography, history, or income and are working to make that belief a reality.
  • Follow the data: Recover is an evidence–based program. We are constantly tracking and incorporating the latest research and using data to improve our programs. Addiction is a medical problem not a moral one, and we treat it as such.
  • Prioritize progress: We meet our patients where they are. Everyone’s recovery is different, and we are here to help, regardless of where they are on that journey.
