Sagebrush Psychotherapy is a DBT-oriented group practice in Los Angeles.

We are looking for a licensed or associate therapist to join our team. This role includes providing individual, couples, and family therapy, leading DBT skills groups, participating in ongoing supervision and consultation, and contributing to the continued growth of the practice through administrative and marketing responsibilities.

While our clinicians treat a variety of presenting concerns, much of our work involves Borderline Personality Disorder, significant emotion dysregulation, suicidality, and trauma.

The clinicians who tend to thrive here are genuinely curious and enjoy learning. They think deeply about their clinical work, ask questions, seek consultation, and see feedback as an important part of becoming a stronger therapist. Our goal is not simply to offer supervision and consultation, but to create a space where clinicians can think deeply about their work, receive support through the challenges that come with being a therapist, and build sustainable careers. We believe even excellent therapists need thoughtful colleagues they can turn to for support, consultation, and honest discussion.
