Licensed Psychotherapist (1099 Independent Contractor)

The Role

We are seeking an autonomous, client-centered Licensed Psychotherapist to deliver outpatient clinical care via telehealth. As a 1099 Independent Contractor, you maintain full clinical freedom and control over your caseload, days, and working hours—with zero administrative, billing, or credentialing overhead.

Recently licensed clinicians with independent practice authority are welcome and encouraged to apply. If you hold an unrestricted license that allows you to practice without mandated supervision, this position offers the ideal infrastructure to build and run your independent virtual caseload from day one.

Perks & Contractor Benefits

• Competitive Per-Session Pay: Earn competitive, reliable compensation for every completed clinical session.
• Health Benefit Stipend: Monthly health stipend available for clinicians maintaining a full-time caseload (e.g., 25+ sessions/week).
• Free CEUs: Unlimited access to free, accredited Continuing Education Units (CEUs) to maintain your state license.
• Therapy & Wellness Services: Access to dedicated, confidential therapy services and wellness support for our clinicians.
• Zero Administrative Burden: We handle all client marketing, scheduling software, insurance credentialing, and billing/claims management.
• Total Scheduling Flexibility: Set your own schedule, client volume, and working hours from your home office (100% remote telehealth).

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct diagnostic assessments, establish clinical formulations, and create treatment plans via telehealth.
• Deliver evidence-based individual, couples, or family therapy within your clinical scope and specialty.
• Maintain compliant, timely progress notes and clinical documentation inside our provided EHR platform.
• Manage client communication and virtual appointments within your chosen availability.
• Assess and manage clinical risk or crises, coordinating referrals to higher levels of care as needed.

Required Qualifications

• Active, Unrestricted Independent Clinical License in your state of practice (e.g., LCSW, LMFT, LPCC/LPC, PsyD, PhD).
• Note: Candidates must be legally authorized to practice independently without board-mandated clinical supervision. Associate or provisional licenses cannot be accommodated.
• Active Medical Malpractice / Professional Liability Insurance (minimum coverage of $1M per occurrence / $3M aggregate required prior to launch).
• Individual National Provider Identifier (NPI) number.
• Dedicated, private, HIPAA-compliant workspace, secure computer, and high-speed internet.
• Active CAQH profile (preferred, but assistance can be provided)
