Outpatient Psychotherapist
About The Position
Northern Tier Counseling is hiring outpatient psychotherapists for fee-for-service, full-time, and in-training opportunities. Fee-for-service roles are intended for master’s-level or license-eligible clinicians seeking flexibility and autonomy with clinical support. Full-time roles involve providing outpatient psychotherapy, managing an assigned caseload, and collaborating with a clinical team. In-training opportunities are for master’s-level therapists preparing for licensure and may also be available to graduate students in psychology and social work. The clinic offers in-vivo therapy training, clinical supervision by LPC and LCSW therapists, individual and group consultation, and clinical partnerships. Duties and eligibility depend on education, credentials, and the specific opportunity. Compensation ranges are $26.01–$31.08 for master’s-level/in-training clinicians, $27.01–$32.08 for LSW/LAPC clinicians, and $30.69–$36.69 for LCSW/LPC clinicians. Fee-for-service compensation is a billable rate of $50–$60 per hour. Eligible candidates may receive a commitment bonus of $2,000 for master’s-level clinicians or $4,000 for fully licensed clinicians. Role-specific compensation, benefits, supervision, and eligibility details are discussed during hiring. Benefits and incentives vary by employment status, position, and program eligibility. Listed opportunities include flexible scheduling, an on-site gym, and a 403(b) retirement plan with company match, described as 3% for all positions; quarterly productivity-based incentive bonuses; and, for eligible full-time/in-training candidates, employee and family health insurance, tuition assistance for related degrees, up to $2,500 in moving expense assistance, and a commitment bonus based on experience. Fully licensed individuals may be eligible for $25,000 in student loan forgiveness. Clinical training, supervision, and consultation support professional development and progress toward licensure. The organization also participates in Pennsylvania’s Behavioral Health Education Program (BHHEP), which offers paid internships and loan-forgiveness options for eligible students and recent graduates.
