Staff Psychologist for the Child Anxiety Center

Are you a Clinical Psychologist with deep expertise in evidence-based treatment for pediatric anxiety and OCD and a genuine passion for the work? We are seeking a full-time psychologist to join our highly skilled, deeply collaborative team in beautiful downtown Seattle.



Evidence Based Treatment Centers of Seattle has been a leader in evidence-based outpatient care since 2002. We are owned and operated by clinicians, and our policies are built around evidence-based care and therapist wellbeing. We are proud of the culture we have built, smart, kind colleagues who love doing excellent work together.


EBTCS is located in beautiful downtown Seattle and is home to four treatment programs:

  • Child Anxiety Center
  • Adult Anxiety Center
  • DBT Center
  • Eating Disorders Center

Our centers are united by a central mission: to deliver state-of-the-art, evidence-based psychological treatment with genuine compassion and care.



Above all, we are looking for a psychologist who has mastered the art and science of exposure-based treatment for anxiety and OCD. We want a clinician whose enthusiasm for this work is infectious, whose clients feel genuinely cared for, and whose colleagues feel genuinely supported.

If you are the kind of psychologist who gets excited about complex OCD presentations, who thinks carefully about exposure hierarchies, and who invests deeply in both clinical outcomes and team culture, we would love to meet you.
