We also strive to provide a positive and fun work culture! We have great in person social and team building events as well as activities to do together virtually such as our quarterly practice book club and our Sage employee only yoga class over Zoom offered by one of our clinicians who is a certified trauma-informed yoga instructor.
Sage Therapy Chicago recognizes that marginalized individuals and communities are disproportionately impacted by systemic failings that can contribute to mental health challenges. We are committed to serving these communities in the work we do. We strongly encourage BIPOC, LGBTQIA, and persons with disabilities to apply!
