Associate Therapist (LSW Licensed in NJ)

Last year, 1 in 10 teens attempted suicide.

It almost never starts there. Instead, it begins with a treatable mental health issue. We could have helped these kids before things got worse, before they resorted to the traumatic and painful step of attempting to take their own life.

Structural features in our country’s healthcare system render it virtually impossible for kids to get the help they need. Between acute provider shortages and low insurance participation, kids have no access to timely, effective care. And without treatment, symptoms that were once mild can rapidly devolve.

Enter Marble

Our mission is to massively increase access to timely, preventative care for all kids, before things get worse.

We accept all insurances, including Medicaid plans, offer virtual care with an emphasis on group therapy, and take a point-of-intervention approach. No waitlists. No insurance holdups.

About the Role

Marble’s clinical team is committed to delivering high-quality care to children, adolescents, and families referred by school social workers throughout New Jersey. Our therapists provide support in various settings, including individual, family, and group therapy, tailoring interventions to meet the unique needs of each client.

Therapists at Marble work on a flexible, part-time basis. Many start with just a few hours per week, and have the opportunity to increase their hours as their availability and interest in taking on more clients grow. This model allows therapists to maintain flexibility in their schedules while benefiting from a supportive, collaborative environment that fosters professional growth.

Our LSWs benefit from supervision by highly skilled LCSWs, who offer not only clinical guidance but also opportunities to provide input into Marble’s evolving model of care. In this collaborative environment, our therapists play a key role in shaping both clinical and operational processes and ensuring continuous improvement.

Marble was founded by an experienced team, including two co-founders of Headway, and our clinicians work closely with Marble’s clinical leadership, including LCSWs and child psychiatrists with decades of experience. Together, we are building an innovative, supportive environment where therapists can thrive and make a meaningful impact.
