Whether you're looking for a few consistent days, evenings, a shorter work week, traditional full-time hours, or something in between, we're open to building a schedule that works for you, your clients, and the clinic.We believe great clinicians do their best work when they have autonomy, flexibility, strong support, and clear expectations.

We provide the clients, administrative support, technology, clinic space, referrals, multidisciplinary team, and infrastructure around you. Our goal is simple: give good clinicians the freedom and support to do good work.A Role Built Around Your Practice. Mental health professionals come to private practice with different goals. Some want to build a fuller caseload. Others want a few consistent clinical days. We are open to building the role around your training, professional scope, interests, and availability.Compensation and scheduling are structured based on experience, clinical role, caseload, and the type of employment arrangement that best fits the position. You will be an employee of Allied Therapy, with access to the supports and infrastructure that come with being part of an established clinic.Flexibility That Actually Means Something. We don't believe every clinician needs the same career. You may prefer longer days and fewer working days, a few consistent clinical blocks each week, or a more traditional schedule. We'll establish clear expectations together and then trust you to manage your work. Depending on your interests and client needs, you may work from our clinic, and virtually. The goal is to build a practice that is clinically meaningful, financially sustainable, and workable for your life.What Makes This Role DifferentClinical Independence Without Isolation.
