Build Something Bigger — And Change Lives, Including Your Own.
In 1935, Louise Whitbeck Fraser opened a school in her home for people with disabilities — defying social expectations and choosing compassion over convention.
She believed everyone deserves the chance to reach their potential and thrive.
Today, that same bold spirit is alive in every Fraser service.
We’re still building something bigger — a more inclusive, connected world where everyone belongs.
At Fraser, you’ll find more than a job.
You’ll find purpose.
You’ll find growth.
And you’ll find a place where your work changes lives — including your own.
As a Pre-Licensed Therapist (Clinical Trainee), you'll receive guidance and support on your path to licensure while making a meaningful impact on the lives of children, adolescents, and families affected by autism and mental health diagnoses. A master's degree in a mental health discipline is required, and you must be on a clinical licensure track (LPCC, LMFT, LICSW). You'll benefit from 2 hours of weekly clinical supervision at no cost to you, which could otherwise cost up to $14,000 annually.
• Early Childhood Day treatment and/or outpatient (individual and family) therapy services working with children, adolescents and families with autism and/or mental health diagnosis.
