This adult male maximum-security correctional facility operates under the state department of corrections and is situated in Butler County, approximately 30 miles northeast of Wichita. The facility is located just east of El Dorado along a major highway in a more rural area outside the main community. Behavioral health services are delivered on-site within a structured correctional environment supported by a multidisciplinary care team.

El Dorado is a community in south-central Kansas with a population of approximately 13,000 residents and serves as the county seat of Butler County. The city is located within driving distance of the Wichita metropolitan area, offering access to larger-city amenities while maintaining a smaller-town setting. Local attractions include the Kansas Oil Museum, the Coutts Museum of Art, and the WWII History Center, as well as El Dorado Lake and State Park, which provides swimming beaches, boat docks, camping, cabins, hiking trails, and a bike path connecting the lake to several parks. Additional community offerings include a local craft brewery, a disc golf course, and a farmers and art market held at East Park.

The Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) will provide individual and group therapy to an adult male inpatient correctional population during full-time day shift hours, managing a caseload of 15-20 patients per day. Responsibilities include conducting clinical evaluations, psychosocial assessments, and screenings to identify treatment needs and develop individualized treatment plans, as well as maintaining accurate clinical documentation in accordance with facility and regulatory requirements. The clinician will respond to behavioral health crises, provide suicide risk assessments, and collaborate with psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, case managers, correctional staff, and other healthcare professionals to coordinate comprehensive care.
