We've been able to streamline our systems, so rather than having to spin your wheels on paperwork and meetings, you can focus on the care you provide. Our clinicians don’t spend endless hours on documentation, but rather, in direct clinical care with motivated and engaged clients. Clinicians here are secure in their caseloads, earn top-level pay, and work in a well-appointed and beautiful space. We strive to nurture competent and skilled providers who care well for themselves so that they can care well for the clients and the communities we support.
What we bring to the table:
- Clinicians working a full caseload (24-32 clients per week) make between $100,00 - $160,000 per year with our fee-for-service pay schedule
- After their one year anniversary, our clinicians see:
- A 20% pay increase on all sessions beyond 24 per week. Translation... an increase in caseload equates to higher hourly pay :)
- After year 2, our team members additionally receive:
- A 401k match
- Full clinical caseload typically established within the first 90 days
- No on-call-shifts
- Independent, yet clinically supportive atmosphere
- CEU benefits included
- Professional development opportunities
- Career advancement opportunities
What you need to bring to the table:
License:
- Active and unrestricted professional licensure as a LMSW, LCSW, LMFT, or LPC, PhD or PsyD
- Preferably, the applicant is already licensed in the state of Alaska. If you are not licensed in Alaska… we will investigate your options for licensure and credentialing.
Experience:
- Experience providing psychotherapy to adults, children, adolescents, or couples
- Our current ideal clinician is especially comfortable working with children and adolescents
Availability:
- Full-time positions available
- Clinicians are expected to schedule 30 sessions per week. Some clinicians choose to put that into 3 days, but we find most settle into the 4 day work week routine.
- Our ideal clinicians would be open to working flexible hours, including some evening and weekend hours, to accommodate client scheduling needs.
Successful MSMH clinicians believe in helping people live happy and successful lives, and they lead by example. Our clinicians actually get to practice what they preach regarding self care. We offer excellent compensation that incentivizes a strong work ethic, we encourage independence in our providers, and we allow flexibility in scheduling. Our clinicians work hard, but have the time to play hard, too!
The right professional counselor will embody the values described above, as well as add to them. They will show themselves to be clinically sound, creative, hardworking, bright, trustworthy, and generally, an exceptional human (empathetic, vulnerable, authentic, curious, collaborative and warm). This should be clearly evident through their professional references, cv/resume, and during their formal interview. Both licensed and pre-licensed therapists are welcome to apply. Beyond clinical competency, what we are interested in most is passion: how you got here, where you want to go, and where your drive comes from.
If you have a strong work ethic, are committed to excellence, and are able to work independently, you may be a good fit! Apply today to find out more.
