Meaningful clinical work. Established referrals. Paid time for the work that supports treatment.

First Integrative Counseling and Consulting Services (FICS) is seeking Georgia-licensed LPCs, LCSWs, LAPCs, and LMSWs to join our growing clinical team.

We serve children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating emotional and behavioral concerns, trauma, substance use, family challenges, and involvement with schools, courts, and community agencies.

Whether you are an experienced clinician or an associate working toward independent licensure, FICS offers a structured environment where clinical judgment, professional growth, cultural responsiveness, and collaboration matter.

COMPENSATION AND WORKWEEK

Our standard full-time model includes 30 hours of direct clinical service and 10 hours of paid administrative work. Administrative time is built into the workweek for documentation, treatment planning, care coordination, supervision, meetings, and other assigned responsibilities.

• LPC: $40–$48 per hour for direct clinical work; $20 per hour for administrative work.
• LCSW: $40–$50 per hour for direct clinical work; $20 per hour for administrative work.
• LAPC/LMSW: $25–$28 per hour for both direct clinical and administrative work.
• Compensation within each range reflects experience, qualifications, and relevant clinical expertise. Pay is based on actual hours worked at the applicable rate.
• For independently licensed clinicians, completing required administrative responsibilities efficiently may allow additional approved direct-service hours within the standard workweek, creating opportunities to increase earnings.

WHAT FICS PROVIDES

• Established referral sources and client assignments to support caseload development.
• Credentialing, billing, and administrative support, along with clinical systems and furnished office space.
• Weekly clinical supervision for LAPC and LMSW clinicians, including case consultation and support documenting supervised experience toward independent licensure.
• Clinical consultation and collaboration for LPC and LCSW clinicians, with opportunities to contribute their experience to the team.
• Structured onboarding and practical training in agency procedures, assessments, treatment planning, and BIRP documentation.
• Opportunities to develop clinical interests through groups, specialty services, mentoring, and program development, as appropriate to qualifications and agency needs.

• Providing safety planning and crisis intervention, with appropriate consultation and referrals.
• Completing BIRP progress notes within 24 hours of service and keeping assessments, treatment plans, and other clinical records current.
