Behavioral Health Supervisor (LPC-S, LMFT, LCSW-S)

At Steadfast Health we’re a on a mission to deliver hope, healing, and long-term health to those experiencing substance use disorder, through best-in-class addiction treatment and an unwavering belief that lasting recovery comes from partnering with our patients as respected equals in their care journey.  We’re a passionate team striving to raise the standard of compassionate care for our patients, and we know that to do that, we must care for our people first. We’d love to meet you and tell you about what we’re building! 

This Role   

We are seeking a mission-driven Behavioral Health Supervisor to join our founding Nashville team, leading our clinicians and delivering whole-person, trauma-informed care to individuals with substance use disorders. At Steadfast Health, we believe that clinicians shouldn't have to choose between patient-centered work and their own mental and financial wellbeing. That's why we're doing things differently, through an integrated, evidence-based behavioral health model that deeply supports both patients and clinicians. For our clinicians, that means compassionate, expert clinical support, competitive compensation, caseloads that prioritize quality over quantity and preserve time for recovery, generous and flexible time off policies, and financial investment in your ongoing professional development.  

Your Responsibilities:

Leadership and Supervision:

• Provide direct supervision and guidance to clinical staff (therapists, case managers) through both weekly 1:1 supervision and Group Supervision. 
• Manage clinician caseloads and ensure that behavioral health staff are adhering to treatment plans. 
• Collaborate with the Medical Director, Peer Supervisor & Facility Administrator or Operations Director to align clinical care and operational goals. 

Therapy and Patient Care:

• As the clinic expands and more clinicians are added to the team, your caseload will be adjusted to allow for greater focus on supervising and supporting the clinical staff. 
• Provide individual and group therapy sessions for patients with substance use disorders, both in-person and via telehealth, embodying the Steadfast patient-first ethos. 
• Conduct comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments and develop individualized treatment plans, modeling a non-paternalistic and destigmatizing approach to patient care.   
• Utilize evidence-based therapeutic modalities, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), to support patient recovery. 
• Collaborate with all clinic-level team members to formulate and execute patient care plans, including Advanced Practice Providers, Medical Assistants, and Peer Recovery Specialists, ensuring integrated treatment approaches. 
• Support patients in crisis intervention situations and coordinate higher levels of care when necessary. 
• Maintain thorough and timely documentation in compliance with state, federal, and organizational guidelines. 
• Pioneer innovative ways of improving access and overall care for disadvantaged, marginalized populations. 
• Champion the company’s mission by modeling compassion and fostering trust and strong relationships with patients and communities. 
• Educate patients and families on SUD, co-occurring disorders, and available resources to support sustained recovery and overall health.   

Qualifications  

• Must be approved as a state qualified supervisor in the state of Tennessee (e.g., LPC/MHSP, LPCC-S LCSW-S LISW-S, LMFT, etc.)
• Independent licensure in Tennessee. 
• Minimum of 3 years of experience providing therapy to individuals with substance use disorders. 
• Certification in addiction counseling is a plus. 
• Experience with telehealth platforms and virtual care delivery is a plus. 
• Strong knowledge of SUD diagnoses, medications, and treatment modalities.    
• Ability to effectively interact with diverse staff, patients, and community members.   
• Excellent interpersonal skills, a flexible, can-do mentality, and a commitment to continuous learning and professional development.  
• Passionate about Steadfast Health’s mission to provide low-barrier, non-punitive, harm-reductionist SUD care.
