About The Company
Founded in 2011, Compass Health Center is the largest provider of non-hospital-based, specialized mental health services in Illinois, Maryland, Virginia, Washington D.C., and Wisconsin. We have a long history of partnering with providers, clinicians, schools, employers, health plans, and community members to provide the highest quality in-person and virtual Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) programs for people who need more than traditional outpatient therapy but are not acute enough for inpatient hospitalization. Intermediate care often serves as the solution for a family in crisis without the need to enter an emergency room.
About the Role

Weekly outpatient therapy isn't always enough, and a trip to the ER isn't the only answer. Patients and their families rely on Compass Health Center when in crisis – every day, we help people overcome depression, anxiety, suicidality, obsessions/compulsions, trauma, chronic pain, and other obstacles in order for our patients to live freely.
