  4. We are looking specifically for Licensed Clinical Social Worker/ Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor to offer therapeutic intervention services to individuals and families across the lifespan.


In addition to patient related care, there are additional opportunities to participate in program development, ongoing programmatic clinical research (on a national/international level), and opportunities to enhance professional relationships with universities in the Pacific Northwest region of the USA. NNH also has an active residency training program for all of its clinical disciplines, which also offers ongoing multidisciplinary interactive didactic sessions for both residents and licensed clinicians.

Distinguishing traits of NNH include our model of integrated service and coordination of care, the quality of our services, and the passion each clinician brings for their work. NNH houses physicians, nurse practitioners, psychologists, neuropsychologists, psychotherapists/counselors, social workers, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, and an education specialist/consultant. The ongoing work at NNH is exciting as we have developed a positive working relationship with the medical and educational communities in Idaho; NNH has become a trusted resource for both families and professionals. Another unique feature of NNH is that all clinicians are independent contractors to our organization allowing each clinician the opportunity to benefit from the private practice model and work in an organization which provides all the necessary structure, instrumentation, equipment, and support needed for a thriving clinical practice.

NNH is located in the outdoors adventure city of Boise, Idaho (www.visitidaho.org).
