Teens Outrunning Anxiety

I’m 21 years old, and besides my busy schedule as a full-time student the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota, keeping a regular running and yoga schedule, work, and trying to balance a social life, I am also the founder and Executive Director of Anxiety In Teens Non-Profit, LLC.

I was astounded to find no place with others who were going through the same thing, no tidbits on what I could do right now when I needed it most. That?s when I took out a notebook and decided it was time to create AnxietyInTeens.com.

NIH Funded Clinical Trial at Kent State University and University Hospitals of Cleveland +

NW Anxiety Institute, a specialty outpatient clinic located in Portland, Oregon, is currently hiring full-time licensed clinicians (psychologist, therapist, social worker). The clinical team at NWAI provides a unique and collaborative approach to helping children, teens, and adults overcome OCD and anxiety disorders through individual, group, and intensive outpatient therapy. By tailoring treatment and adhering to evidence-based principles, clinicians are encouraged to infuse creativity and personality when striving to support individuals to “Stop Coping and Start Conquering” as they courageously change their relationship with anxiety. NW Anxiety Pediatrics, located only a block away, is a space dedicated to offering families and children seeking support for understanding and overcoming OCD and anxiety. Both clinics are housed in fully-restored and renovated historic craftsman homes from the early 1900’s, allowing for a professional, yet warm environment.

NWAI promotes a collaborative and energizing environment for all clinicians and staff, including daily clinical rounding, regular group and individual supervision, and opportunities for working jointly with patients. In addition to outpatient services, NWAI offers two intensive outpatient programs (adult & child/teen) where clinicians frequently share input and expertise to support one another throughout the treatment process. 

NWAI has a strong presence among the Portland metro area school districts and community mental health service providers due to offering frequent trainings on addressing anxiety in youth and schools. A New York Times article, Why are more American teenagers than ever suffering from severe anxiety, features anxiety treatment programs including NWAI that provide evidence-based education and support for parents and anxious youth. Although not required, clinicians with interest in providing clinical presentations are encouraged and supported. 

The current position is perfect for a clinician who is passionate about working with those living with anxiety and excited to receive training on using CBT and exposure response prevention (ERP) in therapy. Training on the art of delivering exposure-based techniques is provided through a hands-on and supportive approach. NWAI offers a highly competitive salary, complete with a robust benefits package and opportunities for continuing education and professional development.
