Job Description & How to Apply Below

Join an established group practice where you'll build your clinical skills with strong supervision, consistent referrals, and none of the administrative headaches of starting solo. We've built the infrastructure, automated intake, insurance billing, marketing presence, and referral flow so you can focus on doing what you love. Helping people.

What We Offer Clinical Development
  • Weekly individual supervision with LCPC (20+ years experience)
  • Evidence-based training (we're Gottman-informed for couples work)
  • Clear documentation for your licensure hours
  • Competitive fee split: 60-65% while building caseload
  • Consistent referral flow from established marketing channels (Psychology Today, Google, community partnerships)
  • We handle all insurance credentialing, billing, and claims (BCBS PPO, Aetna)
Infrastructure You Won't Find Elsewhere
  • Automated referral tracking and assignment system
  • Established EHR and telehealth platform
  • Professional office space in Ravenswood (near Brown Line)
  • Active website with SEO and online presence
  • You're added to our Psychology Today profile immediately
Flexibility
  • Build your schedule as your caseload grows
  • Serve clients throughout Illinois via telehealth
Who Thrives Here

You're provisionally licensed (LPC, LSW, LCPC, LCSW, LMFT or Psychologist) with an active Illinois license and or working toward full licensure. You're comfortable with couples work or interested in learning. You value evidence-based practice but understand therapy is also an art. You're LGBTQ+ affirming and trauma-informed in your approach.

You want strong clinical supervision, not just someone signing off on hours. You're building a sustainable practice, not chasing a quick caseload. You appreciate that someone else handles insurance nightmares, website updates, and referral tracking while you focus on clinical work.

What You ll Actually Do
  • Conduct intakes and ongoing therapy (individual and couples)
  • Respond to referrals from our automated system within 24-48 hours
  • Maintain clinical documentation in our EHR
  • Participate in weekly supervision
  • Build your caseload from part-time (10-15 clients) toward full-time (20-25 clients)
  • Collaborate with a small team of clinicians who actually like each other
The Reality Check

This is a fee-split model, not salaried. Your income grows as your caseload grows. Most clinicians reach 15-20 clients within 3-4 months. You'll need to be credentialed with insurance (we guide you through this, but it takes 90-120 days). Building a practice takes patience. If you need full income immediately, this isn t the right fit.
