Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.
Why this is worth applying to
Worth considering for fully licensed psychotherapists who want flexible remote caseload and reduced marketing/admin burden. Less relevant for clinicians seeking a non-clinical career pivot; verify pay, contractor terms, and the named clinical partner before applying.
Who should apply
Fully licensed LCSW, LMFT, LPC, LPCC, PsyD, or PhD psychotherapists with independent practice eligibility, telehealth experience, and a HIPAA-compliant home office. Not suitable for associate-level clinicians or those without independent licensure.
CV angle
Frame real clinical experience around independent licensure, psychotherapy modalities, diagnostic assessment, treatment planning, evidence-based care, telehealth delivery, HIPAA compliance, EMR documentation, and caseload management. Do not claim non-clinical or informatics experience unless genuinely held.
