We are growing rapidly and seeking passionate Licensed Clinicians in Massachusetts who want to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children, adults, and families—all from the comfort of home.

Unlike many telehealth companies, Real Help hires clinicians as W-2 employees, offering either full-time salaried roles or flexible hourly fee-for-service positions. Our full-time clinicians enjoy stable, guaranteed salary compensation, even when clients cancel — as we believe your time and expertise should be valued.

·         W-2 Employment

We hire W-2 employees only—no 1099 contractor arrangements.

·         Robust Support System

We provide supervision, professional development, free CEUs, and licensure assistance—because investing in our clinicians is investing in quality care.

Focus on Clinical Work

We provide the clients, scheduling support, and tools, allowing you to focus on what matters most—helping people.
