Social Work Careers in Oklahoma
Find Your Flock
We are not a therapy mill. We are not a corporation with a wellness budget and a ping pong table. We are a flock of licensed social workers building expansive lives for our clients and for ourselves.
Ala Therapy Collective is a group private practice made up exclusively of licensed social workers. We are LGBTQIA+ affirming, neurodivergent friendly, progressive, and deeply allergic to corporate therapy energy.
Our tagline is Therapy for an Expansive Life, and we mean it for our clients and for the people doing the work. You cannot pour from an empty cup, and we actually do something about it instead of putting it on a poster.
We are not always posting a specific opening, but we are always open to meeting the right person. If you are a licensed social worker who is done with practices that treat clinicians like production units and clients like case numbers, we want to hear from you.
The Vibe Check
Most group practices say they care about clinicians. Here is the difference in plain terms.
Who We Are Looking For
Licensed social workers, LCSW or LMSW. Oklahoma licensure is required, and multi-state licensure is a plus. Beyond the credential, we are looking for:
- Affirming, person-centered clinicians who do not need to be told why it matters to actually see your clients
- Clinicians who bring lived experience to the work. We treat it as a strength, not something to keep quiet about
- People who are good at their job and secure enough not to make it everyone else's problem
- Clinicians who have a specialty, or are building one, and want to actually use it
- The ability to work independently without someone holding your hand through every decision
Specialties We Are Expanding
We are especially interested in social workers with experience or interest in these areas, and we put real weight on lived experience. If you bring something else to the table that you think we need, make that case.
EMDR and Trauma Work
Clinicians who want to use EMDR and trauma-informed care in a practice that gives them room to do it well.
Perinatal and Postpartum
Clinicians dedicated to reproductive and postpartum mental health across the whole transition into parenthood.
Neurodivergent Affirming Care
Therapists who provide deeply aligned, neurodivergent affirming support, lived experience welcome.
LGBTQIA+ Communities
Clinicians committed to affirming care for queer and trans clients, no exceptions and no debate.
Eating Disorders
Clinicians who specialize in eating disorders and disordered eating and want to do that work somewhere genuinely affirming.
OCD
Clinicians trained in OCD treatment, including ERP, who want to use it in a practice that takes the work seriously.
Men's Therapy
Clinicians who do meaningful work with men and want to help grow that part of what we offer.
BIPOC Affirming Care
Clinicians who provide culturally responsive, affirming care for BIPOC clients and communities. Lived experience welcome.
Family Therapy
Clinicians who specialize in family and relational work and want to build that part of the practice.
Something We Are Missing
Bring your niche. If you are building expertise that fits who we are, we want to help you grow it.
Who Thrives Here
You will probably fit in well here if:
- You believe therapy should be affirming and accessible
- You can work independently and collaboratively without needing constant oversight
- You care about your clients without setting yourself on fire to keep them warm
- You want colleagues you can actually talk to
- You want flexibility without isolation
- You want to build a sustainable career, not just fill a caseload
