Opening Details

Williams College is pleased to announce an opening for a Staff Therapist. This is a full-time, fully-benefitted, 10-month regular position, based on site in Williamstown, MA, with the possibility of some remote hours by arrangement.

Constituted by an interdisciplinary team, IWS staff therapists use a variety of theoretical orientations and integrate multiple psychotherapeutic modalities while focusing on enhanced equity and justice-focused practices across all efforts. IWS embraces a holistic model of student wellbeing (heart, mind, body and spirit) and collaborates with Health Services, Chaplain's Office, Davis Center diversity, equity, and affinity-based programming, Dean's Office, and colleagues from the VP of Campus Life Department to support the whole student. In addition to providing college-aged students with confidential clinical mental health services, therapists offer groups, psychoeducational workshops and special events focused on cultivating student thriving and a culture of wellbeing on campus.

IWS therapists also serve as teaching faculty within the IWS Training Program, a multifaceted training program for post-graduate fellows, practicum students, and interns from a variety of mental health disciplines. Staff work with trainees to explore creative and systemic opportunities for student support and practice integrating emerging evidence-based intervention methods (e.g. mindfulness practices). Together, the IWS team works to recognize, understand, and collaboratively meet the dynamic needs of Williams' diverse student population.

The IWS team encourages candidates from historically excluded and underrepresented groups and those with a demonstrated interest in diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice, to pursue this position.

  • Contribute to a vibrant and healthy interdisciplinary team environment
  • Participate in weekly training seminars, in-service and administrative planning meetings
  • Scheduled nights, weekends and telephone on-call rotation with other staff

Qualifications
  • PhD or PsyD in Psychology or Master's degree in Social Work, Mental Health Counseling or related field required.
  • Current MA in advanced clinical practice licensure or licensure within another state and license eligible within MA in one year.
  • Experience identifying and treating the emotional difficulties and disruptions to thriving unique to a college population (direct experience in a college counseling setting preferred).
  • Demonstrated experience in working with individuals from historically excluded and underrepresented groups.
  • Counseling experience on issues of diversity, intersectionality and identity development.
  • Eager to continue exploring and learning about cultural dynamics internally, interpersonally, and within systems.

Applicants are strongly encouraged to address these qualifications directly within a cover letter, highlighting specifically their experience with and commitment to supporting diverse, inclusive, and equitable communities through their psychotherapeutic practice and within their own professional development.
