Are you an experienced mental health professional ready to take the next step in your career? Join our newly contracted Wraparound program serving youth and families in Riverside County as a Wraparound Therapist! 

As the Wraparound Therapist, you will coordinate services and planning for children who are referred through social service, probation or mental health departments and are in the process of stepping down from institutional into family or family-like settings.

You will engage clients in meaningful and authentic relationships while providing a safe, predictable, and positive environment that aligns with our clients’ values and cultures.

ABOUT RIVERSIDE WRAPAROUND

Seneca offers "Wraparound" services to youth and families experiencing emotional/behavioral challenges in the home.

A family-based team addresses the needs of the entire family, not just the child of focus. This family-based team consists of family members, Seneca's Therapists, Youth Counselors, Parent Partners, Facilitators and other community members who have an important role in the family.
