Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) - Telehealth Address South Dakota, USA Compensation $70.00 - $75.00/hour

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) | Flexible Telehealth

Brightside (www.brightside.com) is a tech-enabled healthcare company. We provide quality mental health care, backed by science, and delivered with humanity. Using an evidenced-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach, our members complete live video sessions with their counselor as well as self-guided video lessons and practice exercises outside of session.

Our counselors are trained to deliver personalized, culturally responsive, and compassionate care to all of their members. This treatment program allows our counselors to apply their advanced clinical skills where they have the biggest impact - providing thoughtful support, a space to process, and solution-focused care in partnership with their clients.

Brightside therapists also have the option to receive free training in the Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicide (CAMS) to treat patients with elevated risk for suicide as part of our Suicide Prevention Program. Suicide Prevention is a first-of-its-kind virtual mental health care program that provides timely, intermediate care for individuals who are actively suicidal and/or have had a recent suicide attempt. Therapists will also have the opportunity to work with our Teen Therapy program and our MH and SUD Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs) launching in the coming months. We firmly believe in providing a continuum of care to those who need it most, encompassing our general mental health population, substance use disorder population, individuals facing an elevated risk of suicide, and adolescents.

What You’ll Gain:

1. Unprecedented impact: You will use the Unified Protocol and evidence-based therapy to help clients reach their treatment goals. These treatment approaches allow for targeted, scientifically-supported care across a wide range of mental health needs.
2. Professional growth opportunities and clinical support: You will receive enhanced clinical support through weekly live drop-in consultation sessions with leadership and free monthly continuing education trainings (CEUs).
3. Custom-built tools: Enjoy our easy-to-use electronic medical record (EMR) integrated with treatment software, assessment tools, progress monitoring and crisis protocols for streamlined documentation and efficient, effective care.
4. Billing support: Our counselor and client support teams handle all the billing so you can focus on providing care.
5. Operational support: Our operational support teams provide clinical drop-in hours, IT support, member account/insurance support, and more.
6. Competitive compensation: 1099 and W2 employment opportunities available according to state licensure.

Your Role as a Mental Health Therapist at Brightside:

1. Provide weekly evidence-based care through synchronous live video sessions to adults with a wide range of emotional disorders.
2. Collaborate with Brightside psychiatric providers to support comprehensive treatment and with fellow counselors as part of the growing therapist community.
3. Draw on automatically administered symptom self-assessments, functional improvement, and goal progress measures to monitor and adjust treatment plans.
4. Maintain timely clinical documentation through our user-friendly, reliable counselor portal that includes digital tools for streamlined documentation.
5. Receive support and consultation from the Therapy Leadership Team when needed.
6. Create your own flexible schedule, Monday - Sunday.
7. No on-call work.
8. Free CEUs.
9. Malpractice and tail insurance covered.
10. State of the art tools, customizable and reliable EMR integrated with artificial intelligence which prompts check-ins, follow-ups, and much more with your clients.

What We’re Looking For:

1. Master’s or doctorate degree in clinical psychology, counseling, or clinical social work (e.g., MA, MS, MSW, MFT, MHC, PhD, PsyD) from an accredited program.
2. An independent license in the state where you reside (e.g., LCSW, LMFT, LMHC, LPC) from the USA (2+ state licenses is a huge plus).
3. Experience working with higher risk populations and/or adolescent population.
4. If participating in our IOP, experience working in this level of care is required.
5. Licensed independently as a Therapist, Counselor or Psychologist for at least 1 year.
6. Preferably 2 years of recent experience providing cognitive behavioral therapy and other evidence-based interventions to individual adults struggling with a diverse range of mental health disorders.
7. Must welcome treating all populations, comfortable working with a diverse range of mental health disorders and committed to delivering culturally responsive care.
8. Tech-savviness and enthusiasm for integrating digital solutions into clinical practice.
