The Riverside University Health Systems - Behavioral Health, Youth & Family Community Services department is currently recruiting for multiple Clinical Therapist II positions located in Riverside.

The Clinical Therapist II provides direct support, advocacy, and therapeutic services to at-risk youth involved in the foster care and juvenile justice systems.

This role focuses on stabilizing placements, coordinating care across multiple agencies, and improving outcomes for youth who are facing significant behavioral, emotional, or environmental challenges.

The department seeks clinicians with experience supporting youth navigating the foster care system, particularly those facing placement instability and transitions between homes or facilities.

In this role, clinicians provide comprehensive case management services-including assessments, service planning, and ongoing monitoring-while coordinating communication and care among partner agencies, group homes, schools, behavioral health providers, child welfare, and probation.
