Key Responsibilities

  • Provide compassionate, evidence-based virtual therapy to individuals, couples, or families.
  • Conduct comprehensive intake assessments and develop individualized treatment plans.
  • Maintain accurate, timely, and compliant clinical documentation.

  • Must carry active, independent professional liability malpractice insurance.
  • Reliable high-speed internet, a secure computer, and a private, HIPAA-compliant workspace.

What We Offer

  • Work from Anywhere: A 100% remote opportunity that lets you work from the comfort of your home.
