Job description

At Meridian Counseling, we believe your career should work for you. We value our clinicians as people and professionals — and we’re committed to helping you build a role that aligns with your goals, your schedule, and the type of clinical work you’re most passionate about.

This position begins as part-time with the opportunity to transition into a full-time role (minimum 30 hours per week) as your caseload grows.

What We Offer

Supervision and Clinical Growth

• Weekly individual supervision with a Licensed Psychologist as a paid benefit
• Group supervision provided as a paid benefit
• Continuing education opportunities, professional development, and clinical training to support your ongoing growth

Responsibilities

• Provide clinical services to clients in alignment with licensing requirements and scope of practice
• Maintain accurate progress notes and documentation in the electronic medical record system
• Participate in weekly supervision and monthly team consultations for clinical support and development
• Collaborate with colleagues and administrative staff to coordinate referral and caseload management
• Contribute to a positive, collaborative work environment and adhere to professional standards

Consistent Referrals and Caseload Support

• Guaranteed insurance-based client referrals — you choose how many based on your financial and professional goals
• Opportunities to build a private-pay caseload for additional earning potential

Flexibility and Work-Life Balance

• Choose between hourly or salaried compensation with benefits
• Set your own schedule and create a workweek that fits your life
• Bonus pay opportunities through our private-pay incentive program

Work Environment Options

• See clients in person at our beautiful Los Angeles office
• Or work remotely from the comfort of your home — whatever works best for you

Community and Collaboration

• Monthly team consultations to connect, collaborate, and receive clinical support
• Regular team events such as trainings, workshops, hikes, volleyball, and game nights- because community and connection are central to our work

Administrative Support

• We handle billing, credentialing, marketing, and client referrals
• Your focus stays where it matters most: seeing clients and maintaining progress notes

This role is ideal for clinicians seeking the independence of private practice combined with the stability, support, and collaboration of a group setting. If you’re passionate about clinical work but want to avoid the administrative and operational challenges of running a practice, this is the perfect fit.

Minimum Qualifications

• Master’s degree in Psychology, Marriage and Family Therapy, Counseling, or a related field
• Proof of current enrollment or transcripts/graduated from an accredited PhD or PsyD program for Clinical Psychology.
• Registered as a Psychological Associate with the California Board of Psychology, or eligible to register within two months of signing an offer letter
• Board approval must be obtained prior to beginning supervision (providing services without approval is considered an unlicensed practice)
• Ability to commit to a minimum of 30 hours per week
• Attendance at all required training and supervision sessions
• Eligibility to become credentialed with insurance panels

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working with trauma, mood disorders, addiction, families, or couples
• Comfort with electronic medical records (EMR) systems
• Training in CBT, DBT, ACT, or EMDR is preferred but not required
