Associate therapists have earned their master’s degree in social work, psychology, marriage and family therapy, or counseling. They have a limited license to practice under supervision, and are completing their supervised hours at Brightline to work toward their independent licensure. That means that all of the work they do with your family will be supervised by one of Brightline’s licensed providers. Their supervising provider will review all session notes, care plans, conversations, and recommendations to ensure the approach to your child’s treatment is aligned with our standards of providing high-quality, safe, and ethical care. Supervising provider names can be found on each associate therapist provider page on our website; the associate therapist will also share who their supervisor is at the start of care. ## Join our clinical team If you are a New York-based clinician who wants to love where you work, you belong at Brightline.
