EMDR Certified Therapist ( Contract)

Canyon Ridge Hospital is currently seeking a compassionate and talented EMDR Therapist to join our team on a Contract Basis.

At Canyon Ridge Hospital we understand that not all wounds are visible. Depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, addiction, and suicide affects millions of individuals and families. Our mission is to be a leader in behavioral healthcare, dedicated to excellent service in the community.
