Job description

You Deserve More Than Just Another Job as a Licensed Therapist

The Problem You're Facing:

You became a therapist to help people, not to spend your evenings drowning in paperwork, chasing down billing issues, or working in a practice that treats you like a replaceable cog. Maybe you’re tired of juggling administrative chaos on top of your clinical load. Or perhaps you’re struggling to find flexible evening/weekend hours that actually fit your life while still building a meaningful caseload.

You know clients need you during evenings and weekends—that’s when they can actually make therapy—but most practices either don’t support those hours or burden you with all the backend work that makes them unsustainable.

There's a Better Way:

At Move Forward Counseling, we’ve built something different. For nearly a decade, we’ve been creating the kind of practice environment where therapists can focus on what they do best: therapy. We handle the administrative burden. We chase the billing. We fill your schedule with clients who genuinely need evening and weekend sessions (we’re literally turning them away right now).

Five‑time "Best Places to Work" winner. Certified B Corporation since 2021. These aren’t just badges—they’re proof that we’ve figured out how to support therapists and gain the support of the community while serving clients exceptionally well.

Here's Your Path Forward:

Step 1: Choose Your Setup

• Hybrid at our Hershey, York or Pittsburgh offices
• Full Time (minimum of 25 hours per week) or Part Time (minimum of 15 hours per week)
• Beautiful office spaces

Step 2: Get Paid What You're Worth

• Master’s level: Starting rate of $44/hr
• PhD level: Starting rate of $65/hr

• Real opportunities for professional development

Step 4: Join a Culture That Gets It

Our values aren’t wall decorations—they’re how we operate:

• Professional Integrity & Excellence: Fair pay, adequate resources, freedom to do your best work
• Open Communication: Direct, honest conversations that actually solve problems
• Continuous Improvement: When something’s broken, we fix it
