Mental Health Therapy Career Context

Action Behavior Centers ranks #1 of 10 employers hiring Behavior Analyst on WeekdayDoc by average advertised pay.

In Texas, the Mental Health Therapy weighted monthly median benchmark on WeekdayDoc is ~$93k (129 salary observations; 664 listings), vs ~$91k nationally (1,237 salary observations; 5,492 listings). Monthly aggregates cover 2026-02-01 through 2026-10-01; these are not the modal's selected comparable-job medians.

Of the 50 active Mental Health Therapy listings this role was benchmarked against, 86% are remote, 18% have no call, 86% require no weekends.

The cost-of-living index for Texas is 97.1 (US average = 100; BEA Regional Price Parities (2024)), so the posted ~$46k midpoint carries the purchasing power of roughly $47k in an average-cost state. 57.7% of Texas clinicians report burnout symptoms in WeekdayDoc's Burnout Index (2026-01 data).

Texas has no state income tax, which can significantly increase take-home pay compared to high-tax states. At the posted ~$46k midpoint, that is roughly $2k–$3k a year versus a typical 4–7% state rate.
