What’s it like to work at SHC?

SHC provides a great supportive environment for our employees. There are a few key benefits that are worth mentioning:

1. Intentional community. We gather regularly to support each other in the difficult work of the helping professions.
2. Beautiful space. The work people do within the walls of SHC is challenging. Having an exceptional environment provides confidence, care, comfort, and safety to both those who seek help and those who provide help.
3. Personal and Professional Growth. Every member of the sage hill community values growing as people and professionals. We are committed to professional development.

Often in the people-helping professions, professionals are asked to sacrifice their earning potential in order to fulfill their professional call. SHC provides competitive compensation, professional development, mobile phone allowance, and reimbursement for any mileage driven to and from work-related requirements.

What’s difficult about working at SHC?

Like every organization, we aren’t perfect—far from it. As a small, rapidly growing company, we don’t have it all figured out. In many ways, we are learning as we go, and this can sometimes be stressful because it requires a lot of flexibility, patience, and optimism. We are getting better at knowing who we are and what we do as a company, but we aren’t fully there yet.

SHC fosters an environment of creativity and innovation. We are entrepreneurial at our core and encourage each other to think outside of the box to develop new ways to help people and grow as a company. This kind of iterative change and adaptability is challenging for some people especially those who need a lot of predictability and security.

How do I work at SHC?

We want to make sure that you’re a good fit for SHC, and that SHC is a good fit for you. We have a discovery and interview process, that we invite potential community members to participate in that helps both them and SHC decide if it is a mutually good fit.

There are four ways that professionals are employed at SHC.

1. Unpaid masters and doctoral practicum and internship Students. (We ask that you complete both your practicum and internship at SHC.)
2. Post-Graduate Fellowship for pre-licensed professionals. These advanced training programs are typically two years.
3. Full Time and Part-time, and bi-vocatonal professionals.

We are a small, lean, and growing company. At this time, we do not provide traditional employee benefits like health, vision, or 401k, etc. When a professional joins SHC they are responsible for their own health insurance. If needed, we can give you some direction in finding the right resources.

SHC provides licensure supervision for its full-time therapists. For those who are not full time, we provide clinical mentoring and training (some of these hours can count towards licensure as secondary supervision hours with our LPC-MHSP and AAMFT supervisors.

This changes from time to time. This question is best asked during your discovery process to find out what is currently available.

We have a 45-day “discovery” process. This is a multi-step process and the different layers are designed to help you discover whether we are a good fit for your needs and if you are a good fit for our mission, values, and culture. So long as it is a fit, you will be invited to continue to the next step. We encourage you to carefully consider your timeline and if this 45-day process will work for you.
