Your admin handled.Scheduling, billing, intake, marketing — that’s not on you. You do clinical work.

Team environment.We’re therapist-owned, we actually support each other, and people stick around because it’s sustainable.

Compensation.$75,000 to $80,000 W-2 employee based on experience. Health insurance (we cover 50%), dental, vision, 401k, malpractice insurance covered, cell phone reimbursement. PTO and paid sick leave.
