Contracted Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC) – Trauma & Relationship Therapy Practice

Join a Practice That Invests in Your Growth

Are you a Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC) looking for more than just a place to collect hours? We are a growing, trauma-focused private practice seeking a motivated and compassionate clinician who wants meaningful clinical mentorship, professional development, and the opportunity to build a thriving career.

Our practice specializes in trauma therapy, relationship counseling, and helping clients create lasting change through evidence-based and experiential approaches. We are passionate about providing high-quality care while creating a supportive environment where clinicians can grow into confident, skilled therapists.

This is a hybrid position, offering a blend of in-office and virtual sessions, with flexibility for the right clinician.

What We Offer

  • Individual clinical supervision toward independent licensure
  • Ongoing mentorship and support beyond required supervision
  • Assistance building and maintaining your caseload
  • Financial support for advanced trainings and continuing education opportunities
  • Exposure to trauma-focused modalities and relationship work
  • Flexible scheduling with autonomy over your calendar
  • Administrative support so you can focus on clinical work
  • A collaborative, supportive team culture
  • Guidance for clinicians interested in eventually launching their own private practice after independent licensure

We genuinely want our clinicians to succeed, whether that means growing within our practice long-term or eventually branching out into independent practice. We believe mentorship should prepare clinicians for the career they want.

Responsibilities

  • Provide high-quality individual and/or couples counseling services
  • Maintain ethical and professional standards in accordance with state licensing regulations
  • Complete timely and accurate clinical documentation
  • Participate in clinical supervision and consultation
  • Develop and maintain a consistent caseload
  • Collaborate with practice leadership regarding clinical growth and professional development
  • Provide both in-person and telehealth services

Ideal Candidate

We are looking for someone who:

  • Holds an active Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC) license (or equivalent associate-level license)
  • Is passionate about trauma-informed care
  • Has a strong desire to grow clinically and professionally
  • Values authenticity, compassion, and meaningful therapeutic relationships
  • Is open to working with individuals and/or couples
  • Demonstrates strong communication, organizational, and documentation skills
  • Can work independently while remaining collaborative and receptive to feedback
  • Is motivated to build and maintain a caseload
  • Does well with 1099 independent contractor positions

Experience with trauma-focused approaches such as EMDR, IFS, DBT, somatic therapies, attachment-based work, or relationship counseling is welcomed but not required.

Why Join Us?

Many associate-level positions focus solely on supervision hours. We take a different approach. We are committed to helping clinicians become exceptional therapists through mentorship, advanced training opportunities, and real-world support in building a successful private practice career.

If you’re looking for a practice that values clinical excellence, professional freedom, and long-term growth, we’d love to hear from you.

To apply, please submit your resume and a brief cover letter describing your clinical interests, therapeutic approach, and what you’re looking for in a supervision and mentorship experience.
