Adventure Programming Hybrid Instructor Position

Elements’ incorporates Adventure Programming to complement our strong therapeutic foundation. We believe AP provides a unique experience for clients during their wilderness therapy experience. The challenge of activities including rock climbing, rappelling, canyoneering, fly fishing, stand-up paddle boarding and low ropes courses can provide a host of powerful teaching opportunities. Some groups have experienced mountain biking, rafting and cross-country skiing. Positive outcomes include increases in self-confidence, self-efficacy, problem solving skills, effective communication, self-awareness, trust, and developing healthy coping strategies.

In the short-term, we are not currently hiring for Adventure Programming Instructor; however, we would like to speak with you if this sounds like a job for you! This is a full-time HYBRID position, which means the instructor will alternate between a Field Mentor shift and an AP Instructor shift. Click here for a full job description. Although, if you have a background in climbing, starting as an outdoor therapy guide first is a great way to learn the job and integrate yourself into other growth positions in the company.

Primary Therapist Position

We are always open to hear from those eager to become a wilderness therapist. Subsequently, we are not currently hiring; however, we like to continue the conversation with those interested in outdoor therapy. Please send your resume to Tara Stireman at [email protected].
