FLEXIBILITY.
INDEPENDENCE.
STABILITY.

at yss, We’ll take care of you, so you can take care of your clients.

We handle all the administrative work, so you can spend time actually doing what you love—helping people! Paying the rent, marketing, scheduling, billing… leave all that to us. Plus, you’ll have the support of other passionate professionals on YSS’s exceptional behavioral health team.

We’re large enough that we serve a wide variety of clients, but small enough that your voice can be heard. You’ll have a full range of training opportunities, as well as the chance to grow and explore areas that interest you.

If you want flexible scheduling, 4-plus weeks of PTO, and the opportunity to make a difference for families across Iowa, we invite you to apply.
