Work-Life Balance Analysis

WeekdayDoc's proprietary algorithm rates Counselor ES- McGavock ES (2026-2027) at Music City Center a 6.0 out of 10 for work-life balance — classified as good. This places the position in the top 35% of all School Psychology physician listings evaluated on our platform.

School Psychology — Physician Career Context

This School Psychology position at Music City Center is open to physician candidates.

Physicians (MD/DO) are in high demand across healthcare settings, with growing interest in positions that offer sustainable schedules and reduced administrative burden.

Nationally, School Psychology professionals earn a median annual salary of approximately $80k, with the typical range spanning $60k to $110k depending on experience, location, and practice setting.

Compensation Analysis

This employer qualifies for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF). Eligible clinicians can have their remaining federal student loan balance forgiven after 120 qualifying monthly payments (10 years). For physicians and advanced practice providers carrying significant educational debt, PSLF eligibility can represent hundreds of thousands of dollars in long-term financial benefit.

No on-call requirements — clinicians are completely off-duty after hours
No weekend shifts — preserving personal and family time
No night shifts — a daytime-only schedule
