About The Position

Vista Counseling is hiring a therapist for its Bend office to serve a full, varied caseload of preferred clients. The intake team matches therapists with clients, allowing them to focus on clinical work. Therapists set their own schedules and caseload goals, with a minimum of 18 client sessions per week and goals ranging from 18 to 30 sessions weekly. The role offers W-2 employment with a locally owned practice that has served Oregon since 2002. Compensation is paid per session and varies by credential and caseload goal. For a full-time caseload of 24 clients per week, associate or pre-licensed therapists with a master's degree receive $62.80 per session (about $78,374 annually); licensed master's-level therapists receive $70.00–$78.00 per session (about $87,360–$97,344 annually); and psychologists receive $79.50–$87.50 per session (about $99,216–$109,200 annually). Annual estimates are based on 52 weeks and include paid sick leave/PTO. The Boost Program guarantees the first three months of pay at the therapist's caseload goal, with a stated value of up to $19,600–$24,300 for master's-level clinicians and $24,800–$27,300 for psychologists. Vista Counseling states its commitment to addressing implicit bias and racism and supporting communities of color and people from diverse backgrounds through humility, continued learning, openness to feedback, and meaningful action. It is an equal opportunity employer.
