Job Description

Role Summary
Build or grow your private practice with the support of an established platform that helps you accept insurance quickly and confidently. As a fully licensed Clinical Social Worker, you’ll provide high-quality behavioral health services to covered clients while we handle credentialing support, practice tools, and streamlined payments—so you can focus on care.

Compensation: Up to $126/hour (based on client load, payer mix, and state-specific rates)

What You’ll Do (Responsibilities)
• Provide evidence-based psychotherapy and clinical support to clients via telehealth in accordance with your licensure and scope of practice.
• Conduct intakes, psychosocial assessments, treatment planning, and ongoing clinical documentation in a timely and compliant manner.
• Maintain accurate records using platform tools (notes, templates, assessments) aligned with payer and regulatory requirements.
• Deliver culturally responsive, inclusive care and tailor interventions to each client’s needs and goals.
• Coordinate care as appropriate with other providers and resources (with proper consents) to support continuity of treatment.
• Manage your schedule, availability, and caseload using real-time scheduling and secure client messaging tools.
• Participate in ongoing learning and quality improvement through available resources, audit support, and optional continuing education (CEUs).
• Uphold ethical standards, privacy requirements, and professional boundaries in a remote setting.

Must-Have Qualifications (Requirements)
• Active, unrestricted clinical license at the independent level: LCSW, LICSW, or LCSCW (U.S.).
• Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW) or higher from an accredited institution.

• Valid NPI number.

• Active malpractice insurance coverage.

• Ability to provide care via telehealth and maintain a secure, private workspace for sessions.
• Strong clinical judgment and comfort working independently while using digital tools for scheduling and documentation.

Nice-to-Have Qualifications
• Ability to practice in multiple states and/or interest in multi-state expansion (where permitted).
• Experience working with insurance-covered populations and familiarity with payer documentation standards.
• Experience with specific populations or modalities (e.g., trauma-informed care, CBT/DBT, couples therapy, adolescents, substance use, Medicare/Medicaid populations).
• Prior private practice experience (new and experienced practice owners are welcome).

How We Support You (Platform Benefits)
Free insurance credentialing support in multiple states—potentially in as little as 30 days—so you can start seeing insured clients sooner.
Compliance made easier with audit support and ongoing resources to help you stay aligned with payer and regulatory expectations.
Broad coverage options with major plans, including Medicare Advantage and Medicaid, to help you reach more clients.
Increased earning potential through access to a nationwide insurance network and competitive rates.
Reliable, predictable payments with bi-weekly payment cycles for greater stability.
All-in-one practice tools including real-time scheduling, secure messaging, documentation templates, and assessments.
Free continuing education opportunities (CEUs) to support your professional growth.
No commitment required and free to use—you maintain control over your practice and availability.

Work Environment
• Fully remote, telehealth-based role within the United States.
• You control your availability and client volume, subject to licensure, credentialing status, and payer requirements.

Equal Opportunity & Inclusion
We welcome candidates of all backgrounds and lived experiences. We’re committed to fostering an inclusive environment and encourage applications from clinicians who reflect the communities they serve.

Ready to Get Started?
Apply with your license type/state(s), NPI, and proof of malpractice coverage. If you’re expanding to insurance for the first time or scaling an established practice, we’ll help you move quickly and confidently.
