Anxiety & OCD Treatment Services is seeking a full-time licensed (or license-eligible) clinician to join our growing outpatient specialty practice in West Des Moines, Iowa. We provide high-quality, evidence-based treatment for anxiety disorders, OCD-spectrum disorders, and trauma- and stressor-related disorders across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, and adults, delivered through a hybrid model combining in-person therapy at our fully furnished office with telehealth (work from home) options.

​

Full-time means 25 clinical hours per week. We have strong, consistent referral demand, and most clinicians reach a full caseload within 6-8 weeks of starting. 

​

About the Position

 

Our practice specializes exclusively in evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety, OCD, and related conditions. Our core specialty is exposure therapy, including exposure and response prevention (ERP) for OCD.

​

You do not need to have advanced experience in exposure-based treatment to join our team. We can teach the clinical skills specific to anxiety and OCD; what matters most to us is that you have a genuine interest in this population, are curious about evidence-based treatment, and are committed to continued learning and growth. We provide ongoing training and consultation and support clinicians at every stage of their careers as they develop their expertise.​

​

What You'll Do

​

• Provide individual therapy (including CBT, ERP, and other exposure-based approaches) to clients with anxiety, OCD, and related conditions, via in-person and telehealth sessions

• Conduct intakes, case formulations, and treatment planning within an evidence-based framework

• Participate in weekly case consultation, monthly team meetings, and regular lunch & learns

• Maintain timely and accurate clinical documentation

​

What We'll Handle

​

​As a W-2 employee, you'll be able to focus on clinical work while we handle the business side of practice, including:​

• Marketing

• Client referrals

• Scheduling

• Billing

• A fully furnished office space

​

Compensation & Benefits​

​

Starting Base Salary

Master's-level (LISW/LMHC/LMFT): $75,000+ 

Doctoral-level (PhD/PsyD): $95,000+ 

​

These are starting salary figures; compensation is higher for those joining at mid- or later-career levels. Clinical hours beyond the 25-hour baseline are compensated through a quarterly incentive bonus. For example, a clinician carrying 30 clinical hours per week can expect total first-year compensation of approximately $101,000+ (master's-level) or $127,500+ (doctoral-level).

​

Additional benefits include:

• Retirement plan with employer match

• Health insurance contribution

• Short- and long-term disability coverage

• Paid time off and paid holidays

• Professional development stipend ($500/year)

• Fully furnished office space in a modern, professional setting

​

Culture and Professional Development

 

We hold weekly team case consultations and monthly team meetings, and clinicians are expected to actively participate as part of a collaborative, team-based practice. We are looking for clinicians who want to be an active part of a team - not simply work alongside other therapists. We value thoughtful discussion of cases, openness to feedback, and learning from one another.

​

Every three weeks, we have Lunch & Learns where clinicians earn CEUs, and each clinician receives a $500 annual professional development stipend in addition to our ongoing training. We believe strong clinicians are lifelong learners, and we value curiosity and a genuine desire to continue developing your clinical skills.

​

We are actively involved in community outreach and education related to anxiety and OCD, and as the practice grows, there will be additional opportunities for clinical leadership.

​

Qualifications

 

Required:

• Licensed (or license-eligible) in the state of Iowa

• A genuine interest in working with anxiety, OCD, and related conditions

• A collaborative mindset - you value consultation and want to contribute to a team-based practice

• Commitment to evidence-based treatment and ongoing professional development

​

Bonus/Preferred:

• PhD/PsyD 

• Training or experience in CBT, ERP, or other evidence-based anxiety treatments

• Experience treating children and adolescents - we're particularly interested in candidates who want to build a caseload with this population, though we also welcome clinicians who focus primarily on adults
