Mental Health Therapist & Clinical Supervisor (Contractor) – NY / Remote

Join Cartwheel to help tackle the student mental health crisis.

Kids spend most of their days in the classroom. And teachers and staff, who play a vital role in their development, are often the first to notice when something is off. But with 1 in 5 young people struggling with mental health, schools are getting crushed by a downward spiral in student crises and staff burnout.

With large increases in federal funding for schools and the rise of telehealth, schools are reimagining what mental health support can look like.

Role

Cartwheel is an early-stage company building a new kind of mental health program that puts schools at the center. We see our role as supporting on-campus counselors, psychologists, and school social workers who see kids every single day. Instead of going around them, we collaborate with them. This means:

Earlier intervention
Higher student and family engagement in care
Better coordination among the trusted adults in a student’s life

Kids shouldn't just aspire to get out of bed and drag themselves to class. They should be able to experience joy. They deserve to envision and build a life they’re excited to live. If you join Cartwheel, you’ll help make this vision a reality for millions of students across the country. We’re backed by top investors including General Catalyst, BoxGroup, and Able Partners, and we're looking for scrappy, mission-driven teammates to join our team.

About The Role

We’re looking for team-oriented and mission-driven therapists to join our amazing and interdisciplinary care team of psychiatrists, therapists, and school health professionals. As a Mental Health Therapist, you'll work directly with school staff, students, and families in our partner school districts to build stronger systems of mental health support.

Role type: 1099 independent contractor (10-20 hours per week)

Location: 100% remote

Specific Needs: Independently licensed therapists who are qualified to provide supervision to junior clinicians, with experience supporting elementary-aged students and offering parent guidance.

Start date: Rolling start dates in Summer 2025 based on need and language ability

What You’ll Do

Provide excellent care, including mental health assessments and teletherapy, to middle and high school students in Cartwheel’s partner school districts (typically 2-4 months per student with possible extension up to 6 months)
Participate in case discussions with other Cartwheel team members
Support students and families with transition to community mental health and primary care providers
Build collaborative, trusted, and lasting relationships with school leadership, staff, students, and families. Meet regularly with school staff to discuss student mental health needs and develop strategies to improve school services.
Help lead mental health workshops and other programming for staff and families
Partner with school leadership on achieving their overall mental health vision

Who You Are

Must have…

Passion for working with schools on mental health
Master’s Degree or higher from an accredited school of Social Work, Psychology, Counseling or Marriage, or Family and Child Counseling.
Active New York license to provide mental health care and clinical supervision to master’s-level clinicians (LCSW or LCSW-R only at this time).
Experience with CBT, DBT, ACT, solution-focused therapy, and/or motivational interviewing
Experience delivering care via telehealth
Strong technological skills and learning new systems, including Zoom, GSuite (Google Calendar, Gmail, etc.), electronic health record systems, and other collaboration tools
Access to a reliable, high-speed internet connection (50 Mbps download, 10 Mbps upload)

You can test your internet speed at https://www.speedtest.net/

Excellent organization, communication, and teamwork skills
Willingness to offer hours after a typical school day (e.g., 3-8pm Eastern Time) or weekends

Extra credit…

Fluency in other languages (e.g., Spanish, Portuguese)
Experience with parent guidance
Active NPI number (Need to apply for your NPI? Visit this link. It takes about 2 to 4-weeks)
CAQH credentialing set up (Need to apply for CAQH? Visit this link. It takes about 3 to 4-days)
Experience developing and/or delivering skill-building workshops for parents and families on mental health topics
Willingness to visit schools and meet with staff occasionally during the year
