Contract Therapist
Hiring Fully Licensed Therapist, 1099 Position
Wellpower Counseling is looking for therapists who are autonomous and collaborative-minded!
As the owner of Wellpower Counseling, my interest in expanding my practice is to support other therapists. I had underwhelming experiences as a graduate intern and I know what it’s like to work as an associate level therapist making such a low wage, I did not qualify for exempt status while working in a position that saw high turnover rates due to the demanding nature of the work. I want more for therapists as a group and for mental health as a field. The world is in dire need of therapists who make this sacrifice and while it is fulfilling, I believe this sacrifice is more fulfilling when done with the confidence of knowing there is someone behind you who wants to help you succeed.
Things you should know about me:
I love to learn; I read and go to trainings as much as I can manage
I continue with my own clinical and business consultation on a monthly basis
I have yet to stop transforming my business (I am big into ongoing efforts to learn, grow, and advance)
I am a certified clinical trauma professional and I have started the process of becoming certified in Brainspotting
I have become a neuroscience nerd
Qualities I am looking for in a therapist:
An LPC, LMFT, LCSW, or the equivalent in the state of Georgia.
Sound judgment, keen critical thinking skills, and willingness to ask questions when necessary, especially related to legal or ethical issues
Exemplary written and oral communication skills
Interested in fulfilling their duties as therapist according to best practices
Willingness and interest in participating in team meetings
Acknowledge this is a 1099 contract position in which you will do your own taxes, set your own schedule, contribute marketing yourself independent of The Practice, and making decisions that impact your ability to attract new clients
Your own laptop and internet connection and phone service
Open-minded, accepting and supportive of other races, backgrounds, identities, and other cultural perspectives and realities other than your own
Optional (will increase attractiveness of your application):
Would like to work with preteens/teens

Interest in contributing to The Practice website and social media to build your visibility and credibility to attract clients
Tasks
