We built Valley Spring to be different -- for patients and for the people who serve them. Here's what that means for you.
You won't be running the same group on repeat. Our Restore, Activate, Accelerate, Thrive model means you guide patients through distinct clinical phases -- from stabilization through lifelong alumni support. Every stage has different goals, different modalities, and different challenges to keep your work engaging and impactful.
Small caseloads mean real relationships, not assembly-line treatment. You have time to know each patient's story.
Our Dual-Licensed Matrix lets clinicians authorized for both SUD and Mental Health tracks work across programs. More variety, more skill development, more earning potential with 1.5x rates for active group facilitation.
We hold ourselves to the highest national accreditation standards. You work in a structured, quality-driven environment that values clinical excellence over volume.
Therapists, psychiatrists, case managers, program coordinators, and outreach staff -- all collaborating in weekly treatment team meetings.

A compensation package built around the reality that great clinicians deserve to be supported, not burned out.
Market-leading salary with performance incentives. Dual-licensed clinicians earn 1.5x hourly rates for active group facilitation across SUD and Mental Health tracks.
Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your family.
Generous PTO plus paid holidays. We believe in the recovery of our staff, too.
Free clinical supervision hours for staff pursuing licensure. We invest in your credentials.
Continuing education support and conference attendance to keep your skills sharp.
Our IOP programs run 6-9 PM, opening up flexible scheduling for clinicians who prefer non-traditional hours. Work when it fits your life -- mornings free, evenings meaningful.
At Valley Spring, "Family for Life" isn't just a tagline for patients -- it describes how we function as a team. Weekly treatment team meetings every Wednesday ensure therapist-client matching is intentional, not random. Program Coordinators Ron and Cameron treat every new arrival as a person first, not a chart number. Clinical Director Henry Iwuala and Medical Director Dr. Michael Olla maintain an open-door philosophy.
Our community outreach team -- led by Brian Cellary (NCADD Businessman of the Year) and James Sands -- connects us to Bergen County nonprofits, county agencies, and neighboring communities. You are joining a team with deep roots in recovery and community service.
Every Wednesday, the full clinical team meets to match patients with the right therapists based on specialization and personality.
Standalone building in Norwood with private parking, treatment rooms, group spaces, and administrative offices.
Health and Wellness programming includes yoga, sound baths, gym circuits, hiking, reiki, and nutrition -- modalities you participate in, not just prescribe.
From housing to FMLA paperwork to court coordination, case managers handle the full picture so clinicians focus on clinical work.
These aren't wall decor. They're the operating system behind every clinical decision, every hire, and every patient interaction.
We do the right thing no matter what. When no one is watching, we still hold ourselves to the same standard. Ethical treatment is non-negotiable.
We work to better our patients' lives. Not the bare minimum -- the full commitment. Every session, every follow-up, every case note matters.
We serve each other and our clients with humility and care. Ego has no place in recovery. The patient's progress is the only metric that counts.
We treat everyone with dignity and value every perspective. Patients, families, fellow staff -- regardless of background, status, or stage of recovery.
We work with intention and hold ourselves to a high standard. CARF accreditation, NJ dual-licensing, and A+ BBB rating reflect what happens when purpose meets discipline.
Collaboration and unity guide our success. Weekly treatment team meetings, cross-department case reviews, and a culture where asking for help is a strength.
