Do you want to make a difference in your community?
Do you love working with families?
Community Solutions, Inc. (CSI) is looking for a compassionate, dedicated Therapist in Topeka/Kansas City, Kansas region who want to empower youth and families by creating strength-based behavior change that will be sustained long after treatment ends. During the Covid-19 pandemic, we have been giving our therapists the resources to see families in a safe way, either virtually or in-person with social distancing and personal protective equipment.
You will receive training in the Multisystemic Therapy (MST) model as you begin working with families, youth, their communities, and other key members of their ecology to implement MST as designed. Extensive research has proven the effectiveness of MST. MST therapists do whatever it takes, via close collaboration with all involved, to address the needs of juveniles with serious criminal offenses and, in some cases, substance abuse. You will empower families to address challenging and/or problematic behavior and to help youth aged 12 - 17 make life-transforming changes. Treatment progress is made through intensive interventions such as skill building, changing unhelpful family interactions, and increasing social support, to name a few. For more information on Multisystemic Therapy, please watch this video: How Does MST Work?
CSI is proud to be one of the largest nationally licensed providers of MST with over 20 years of successful client outcomes across six states. The MST program in Kansas will provide services to at-risk juveniles and their families involved with the Department for Children and Families (DCF).
