There are people in the greater Lincoln area who need someone in their corner. Kids who are struggling in school. Adults who've been on a waitlist for months. Families that are stretched thin with nowhere to turn. There aren't enough clinicians in this part of Maine, and the ones who are here can't keep up with the need.

MC Community Services is looking for a licensed clinician to join our outpatient therapy practice. You'll carry a caseload of children and adults, providing individual, family, and group therapy. Your work will be supported by a team of Behavioral Health Professionals who deliver community-based services to many of the same families you'll be treating, giving you a fuller picture of each member's life than most outpatient clinicians get.

What you'll do

Conduct Comprehensive Assessments — integrated evaluations of each member's medical and psycho-social needs, including screening for co-occurring mental health and substance use conditions, using current DSM diagnostic criteria
Provide individual, family, and group therapy for children and adults using evidence-based practices
Collaborate with staff, families, schools, and other providers as part of a treatment team
Help shape a growing clinical team — contribute to peer consultation, case collaboration, and how we support each other clinically
Apply Trauma Informed Care principles across all service delivery
Maintain clinical documentation in compliance with MaineCare requirements

What we're looking for

Fully licensed (LCSW, LCPC): Higher end of pay range. Clinical independence with support from leadership, not micromanagement.

Conditionally licensed (LMSW-cc, LCPC-c): Welcome to apply. We provide clinical supervision toward full licensure at no cost to you.

Our Clinical Director holds an LCSW, LADC, and CCS and will serve as your supervisor. Starting pay at the lower end of the range with increases tied to licensure milestones and caseload growth.

Minimum qualifications

Master's degree in Social Work, Counseling, or a related field
Active Maine licensure: LCSW, LCPC, LMSW-cc, or LCPC-c
Valid driver's license and reliable transportation (community-based travel required)
Knowledge of trauma-informed care practices
Ability to serve members with co-occurring mental health and substance use conditions

Preferred

Experience with MaineCare documentation and billing
Background in behavioral health, developmental disabilities, family therapy, or adult mental health
Familiarity with Section 28 or Section 65 service delivery
Training in evidence-based modalities (CBT, TF-CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing)

What we offer

Competitive salary starting at $75,000 depending on licensure and experience
Clinicians who don't work alone. You'll be part of a growing clinical team that actively supports each other.
Free clinical supervision for conditionally licensed clinicians
Dental and vision insurance
Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Paid time off and paid holidays
401(k) retirement plan
CEU and professional training allowance
Mileage reimbursement for community-based travel
Small agency, real autonomy. You'll have direct access to leadership, flexible scheduling, and a voice in how services are delivered.

Who we are

MC Community Services is a licensed Mental Health Agency contracted with the Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and enrolled as a MaineCare provider. We've been providing behavioral health services to children, adults, and families in the greater Lincoln area since 2009, delivering rehabilitative community support services under Section 28 and outpatient behavioral health services under Section 65 across Penobscot, Piscataquis, and Washington counties.

We're a small, locally owned agency. Our staff lives in the same communities as the families we serve. The impact isn't abstract. It's personal.

We're not a big healthcare system with layers of bureaucracy. We're a small, caring team of people who show up every day for folks who need us. If that's the kind of work that drives you, we want to talk.
