About Braverly
Braverly Health is a specialized virtual clinic making evidence-based selective mutism care more accessible to individuals and families. Our vision is a world where everyone affected by selective mutism can find the right support, no matter where they live.
Selective mutism is an anxiety disorder that leaves someone unable to speak in certain situations, even when they speak comfortably in others. Affecting as many as 1 in 140 school-aged children, it can prevent people from participating in class, building friendships, asking for help, and pursuing opportunities they want. Although selective mutism is highly treatable, families often spend months or years searching for providers who understand the condition and know how to help.
The role
We’re seeking independently licensed therapists to provide virtual care for children, teens, young adults, and families affected by selective mutism, related anxiety, and common co-occurring conditions. Selective mutism experience is welcome but not required. Bring a foundation in evidence-based CBT, and we’ll train you in our active, structured, exposure-oriented approach to selective mutism care.
