LPC Clinical Supervisor & Therapist – Full-Time Ellie Mental Health–Clarkston is an independently owned practice providing in-person and telehealth care throughout Michigan. Our furnished clinic and administrative support, including billing, allow clinicians to focus on client care, supervision, and growth.

Compensation

This is a W-2 straight-commission position, not a salaried position. Clinicians earn a commission percentage of collected insurance and client payments for completed services, a common outpatient private-practice model. Compensation covers session preparation, client sessions, scheduling, documentation, and required meetings. Unlike a 1099 arrangement, the W-2 model includes employee benefits, employer-paid payroll taxes, and employment protections.

Caseload Development

Building and maintaining a caseload is a shared responsibility. The practice provides marketing, online scheduling, administrative support, community relationships, and practice-generated referrals. Clinicians must also maintain availability, respond promptly to referrals, support retention, communicate their specialties, and participate in approved outreach.

Approved outreach and caseload-development activities are paid at $20 per hour when authorized in advance.

Full-time clinicians must average at least 25 direct client-facing hours per week and initially offer approximately 35 scheduling hours per week to support growth and cancellations. At least one evening is required.

Responsibilities

• Conduct assessments, establish diagnoses, develop treatment plans, and provide evidence-based psychotherapy
• Complete clinical documentation accurately and on time
• Provide individual and group supervision to assigned LLPCs
• Review and co-sign supervisee documentation promptly
• Monitor clinical competence, ethics, scope, risk management, documentation, and licensure progress
• Remain available for required consultation and clinical escalation
• Maintain supervision records consistent with Michigan requirements and practice policy
• Support scheduling consistency, retention, outreach, team consultation, and quality improvement

Required Qualifications

• Current, unrestricted Michigan LPC license in good standing; limited or provisional licensure does not qualify
• Current ACS credential or documented eligibility to supervise LLPCs through another Michigan LARA-recognized pathway
• Ability to complete required supervisor qualification forms and records
• Master’s degree in counseling or a related field from an accredited institution
• Experience with outpatient psychotherapy, assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, risk assessment, and compliant documentation
• Ability to provide structured, ethical, timely, and developmentally appropriate supervision
• Willingness to participate in caseload development and community outreach
• Strong communication, organization, boundaries, dependability, and follow-through
• Proficiency with EHR and office technology; Valant experience is a plus

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous supervision of LLPCs
• Outpatient private-practice experience
• Credentialing with commercial insurance, Medicaid, or EAP panels
• Community referral relationships or outreach experience
• Marketing or presentation experience
• Clinical specialties responsive to community needs

Benefits

• Paid time off and holiday pay

• Short-term disability insurance
• 401(k)
• Free annual CEUs
