Part-Time ADHD- and Autism-Informed Therapist 

Life Matters Counseling and Psychological Services — Farmington, Utah

Life Matters Counseling and Psychological Services is seeking a warm, collaborative, and independently licensed therapist to join our growing group practice. We have an established need for clinicians who genuinely understand ADHD, autism, and neurodivergence. We are looking for someone who can provide thoughtful, practical, and affirming care to adults and young adults.

This is an excellent opportunity for a clinician who wants the support and referral flow of a group practice while maintaining clinical autonomy and a sustainable daytime schedule.

About the Position

• Part-time position with the opportunity to grow

• Weekday daytime hours, with sessions ending by 2:00 p.m.

• Optional Saturday availability

• Primarily in-person services in Farmington, with telehealth opportunities as appropriate

• Established demand for ADHD- and autism-informed therapy

• Support with referrals, scheduling, billing, credentialing, marketing, and furnished office space

• Compensation based on experience, specialized training, and qualifications

Who We Are Looking For

The ideal clinician has meaningful experience supporting neurodivergent adults and young adults. They understand that ADHD and autism involve much more than attention difficulties or social skills. Their work may address executive functioning, masking, sensory needs, emotional regulation, burnout, motivation, identity, shame, relationships, and major life transitions.

We are seeking a clinician who is affirming without reducing every concern to neurodivergence and who can thoughtfully recognize co-occurring anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, sleep problems, and other clinical needs.

Responsibilities

• Provide individual psychotherapy to adults and young adults

• Testing as applicable

• Complete timely and clinically appropriate documentation

• Develop collaborative, individualized treatment plans

• Adapt interventions to clients’ executive-functioning, communication, sensory, and processing needs

• Coordinate with prescribers, evaluators, and other providers when appropriate

• Refer clients for formal psychological assessment when diagnostic clarification is needed

• Participate in required consultation or team meetings

• Maintain ethical, professional, and inclusive clinical practices

Required Qualifications

• Active, independent Utah license as an LCSW or CMHC

• Graduate degree from an appropriately accredited program

• Demonstrated experience treating ADHD, autism, or neurodivergent clients

• Strong understanding of professional boundaries, ethical practice, and scope of competence

• Ability to work independently while participating collaboratively in a group practice

• Commitment to neurodiversity-affirming and LGBTQ+-affirming care

• Ability to provide weekday daytime appointments

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with late-identified or late-diagnosed ADHD and autism

• Understanding of masking, autistic burnout, executive dysfunction, sensory differences, alexithymia, and emotional dysregulation

• Experience adapting ACT, CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, or other evidence-informed approaches for neurodivergent clients

• Experience supporting women and others whose neurodivergence may have been overlooked

• Experience with chronic illness, chronic pain, identity development, caregiver stress, or major life transitions

• Comfort working with partners or family members when neurodivergence affects communication and relationships

• Credentialing with major Utah insurance plans is helpful but not required
