Associate Therapist (AMFT, ACSW, APCC)

A Place to Turn (APTT) | Westlake Village & Pasadena & Beverly Hills | Hybrid

A Place to Turn is a growing, holistic group practice rooted in mind-body-spirit integration. We provide curated client matches, strong clinical support, and a structured environment where associate therapists can truly grow.

We’re looking for clinicians who want more than just a job—those seeking long‑term development, mentorship, and a collaborative team.

What You’ll Do

• Provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families
• Support clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relational challenges
• Build a caseload (goal: 20+ clients/week within 6 months)
• Complete timely, high-quality clinical documentation
• Participate in weekly supervision (group + triadic as needed)
• Collaborate with a supportive clinical team

What We Offer

• Steady client referrals (we help fill your caseload)
• Billing, credentialing, and admin assistance
• Beautiful office space + hybrid flexibility
• Structured supervision and training
• Growth within a mission‑driven, holistic practice

Compensation (CA Pay Transparency)

• W‑2 position with standardized hourly session pay: $42.50/hour for all client sessions (insurance and private pay)
• Administrative hourly pay provided for required activities, including:
  • Clinical supervision (group and triadic)
  • Required meetings and administrative tasks
• Performance‑based growth opportunity:
  • Associates who maintain 20+ client hours/week for 3 consecutive months may be eligible for a $5/hour increase
• All required work time is compensated in alignment with California employment law

Why You’ll Love This Job

• You don’t have to build your practice alone — we provide referrals and aligned client matches
• You’ll be supported, not siloed — consistent supervision and a collaborative team
• You’ll grow as a clinician — real development, not just hours toward licensur
• You’ll have clarity and consistency — structure that helps you succeed
• You’ll be paid fairly for your time — including supervision and required admin work
• You’ll be part of something meaningful — a purpose‑driven, intentional clinical community

What Makes APTT Different

• Structured on purpose—not chaotic
• Thoughtful client‑therapist matching to support your strengths
• Supervision that develops you clinically, not just fulfills requirements
• Holistic + clinically grounded approach (mind, body, and spirit)
• Long‑term team vision, not a revolving‑door practice
• Culture of accountability, growth, and professionalism

Expectations

• Consistent weekly availability (Fridays required; Saturdays as needed)
• Maintain ~15 seen clients/week minimum
• Reliable attendance, especially during first 90 days
• Active participation in supervision and team structure
• Commitment to a long‑term role

Ideal Candidate

• Reliable, organized, and accountable
• Warm, professional communicator
• Comfortable in a fast‑paced, growing environment
• Open to feedback, supervision, and clinical growth
• Interested in holistic / integrative therapy approaches

Requirements

• Registered Associate with CA BBS (AMFT, ACSW, APCC)
• Master’s degree in related field
• Malpractice insurance
• Strong clinical and documentation skills
