What We Offer

• Competitive Pay based on licensure and experience.
• Work-Life Balance: Target full-time caseload of 20 clients/week with control over your schedule.
• Robust Administrative Support: Dedicated team handling credentialing, intake calls, client matching, and billing so you can focus entirely on clinical care.
• Benefits Package: Health/Dental/Vision Insurance, Retirement package, Paid Time Off, CEU stipend
• Supportive Culture: Monthly case consultation, team lunches, and an approachable, collaborative clinical leadership team.
