Soul Seated Journey is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit supporting emerging adults ages 18–29 from underserved and marginalized communities as they navigate a pivotal stage of life. We create experiences that help people better understand themselves, build meaningful connections, and move through the world with greater compassion, clarity, and steadiness. Grounded in both science and wisdom traditions, our approach brings together community, guided learning, and real-life practice.

We believe there is no one-size-fits-all path to growth. Soul Seated is designed as a connected ecosystem that brings together in-person immersive experiences, dedicated human support through our Care Team and guides, ongoing community, and thoughtfully built technology, to meet people where they are and support them over time.

We are committed to expanding access to spaces of belonging and growth, particularly for young adults who have had less access to the kinds of support, community, and guidance that make this stage of life more navigable. We design our work to be inclusive, culturally responsive, and grounded in the realities people are living.

About the Role

The Integrative Guide is the primary one-on-one companion for each SSJ member — a transdisciplinary practitioner who holds individual relationships across the full seven-month arc, shifting fluidly between chaplaincy, counseling, and coaching as each member’s needs evolve. This is not one helping profession; it is the practiced capacity to move between them with skill. Reporting to the Practice Integrity Supervisor, you carry a “care load” of up to 15 members as the consistent human thread that holds their individual journey together long after the group container has closed.

What You’ll Do

Prepare: Welcome & Threshold Check-In (5%)
* Conduct a 15-minute 1:1 welcome session with each of your assigned members before the program begins
* Help each member arrive at Day 1 with intention rather than anxiety; address residual concerns and establish the relational foundation
* Identify and respond to dropout risk signals between enrollment and program start

Immerse & Integrate: 1:1 Accompaniment & Presence (70%)
* Meet individually with each member approximately every two weeks across the 8-week Immersion — more frequently during the “messy middle” of weeks 3–5
* Hold a trauma-informed container for members to process experience and make meaning of their inner work; offer grounding when struggling, gentle momentum when stuck — without solving for them
* As the program ends, shift focus from “what are you experiencing?” to “how is this showing up in your life?” — help members build concrete plans for sustaining their practices
* Hold space for regression; help members distinguish genuine setback from the testing of new capacities by old environments
* Connect members to appropriate internal and external resources; coordinate with the Practice Integrity Supervisor on any escalation, managing all handoffs with care

Care Team Collaboration & Scope Management (25%)
*Partner with your pod’s Facilitator-Guide to share observations and identify members needing additional support
*Participate in individual and group supervision with the Practice Integrity Supervisor throughout the program cycle, including Care Team debriefs
*Manage digital platform responsibilities: session notes, appointment coordination, member follow-up, and Care Team communication
*Contribute to the refinement of program materials and job aids based on direct member experience

Must-Have
* 7+ years of professional experience in one or more helping professions: psychology, chaplaincy, coaching, social work, expressive arts therapy, or a related field
* Demonstrated integrative approach: trained in and able to draw from multiple healing and transformation modalities
* Experience working with BIPOC communities, particularly youth and emerging adults, in trauma-informed, culturally responsive settings; lived BIPOC experience prioritized
* Documented practice within trauma-informed frameworks in both individual and group settings
* Demonstrated integration of racial justice and structural inequality frameworks into past work or training

Experience & Capabilities
* Spiritual & Contemplative Practice: Documented investment in spiritual or contemplative study, with experience guiding from this perspective without imposing a framework
* Integrative 1:1 Support: Proven ability to hold individual relationships across an extended arc, including meaning-making, integration support, and adaptive care transitions
* Scope & Escalation Judgment: Demonstrated ability to recognize when a member’s needs exceed your scope and coordinate referral with care and professionalism
* Digital Fluency: Comfort managing member communication, session notes, and Care Team coordination in shared platforms

What Success Looks Like
* You successfully complete our Care Team Training with a strong review and ongoing endorsement from our Training Lead and Practice Supervisor. This review will also draw on member feedback and we expect above average (medium) scores overall.
* Every assigned member arrives at Day 1 having felt genuinely met — purposeful rather than anxious
Members describe their 1:1 sessions as the safest, most honest space they have — not because you solved anything, but because your presence held them
Members in Integration describe the program as a new way of living, not a closed chapter — and name you as the consistent presence that made the translation possible
Escalation handoffs are handled with such care that no member experiences a referral as abandonment
Your field contributions have made program materials and Care Team coordination visibly stronger

Nice to Have
Experience working specifically with Gen Z or emerging adults (18–29) in structured multi-week program contexts
Background in expressive arts, somatic practices, or body-centered healing modalities
Existing relationships with Bay Area mental health, wellness, or spiritual community organizations
