What is a contractor associate?

Contractor Associates are professionals who support the operations of a contractor or contracting business. Their responsibilities often include assisting with project management, coordinating with clients and subcontractors, managing documentation, and ensuring compliance with regulations. They play a key role in facilitating communication and helping projects run smoothly from start to finish.

To thrive as a Contractor Associate, you need strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and knowledge of contract management processes, often supported by a relevant bachelor’s degree. Familiarity with contract management software, Microsoft Office Suite, and possibly certification in contract administration (such as NCMA’s Certified Federal Contracts Manager) is typical.

Job description

Desert Psychiatric Associates is a highly respected, well-established outpatient psychiatric practice serving the Coachella Valley. We are seeking a motivated and compassionate LMFT or LCSW to join our practice as an independent contractor while building and growing their own private practice.


Whether you are currently in private practice, transitioning from an agency, community mental health setting, or hospital environment, or simply seeking greater professional autonomy and work-life balance, this opportunity allows you to practice independently while benefiting from the infrastructure and support of an established behavioral health practice.


What We Offer

  • Independent Contractor (1099) status with the freedom to manage your own practice
  • Flexible scheduling with daytime, evening, and weekend availability
  • Opportunity to build your caseload at your own pace
  • Professional profile and web presence on our practice website
  • Referrals from our established psychiatric practice and in-house providers
  • Beautiful, fully furnished therapy offices in a professional medical setting, with the ability to personalize your workspace
  • Prime Palm Desert location with convenient covered parking
  • Dedicated administrative support to answer phones, schedule appointments, and assist patients
  • Obtain prior authorizations when needed 
  • Insurance credentialing completion and submission
  • Billing, claims submission, patient invoicing, and collection services
  • Computers, internet access, and office amenities provided
  • Collaborative environment alongside an experienced board-certified psychiatrist
  • Opportunity to consult and collaborate with a highly respected therapist who has been a valued member of our practice for over 18 years

Ideal Candidate

  • Licensed LMFT or LCSW in the State of California
  • Committed to providing high-quality, patient-centered care
  • Motivated to grow, maintain and market your independent practice
  • Strong clinical and interpersonal skills
  • Comfortable working both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team
  • See patients across the age spectrum from age 6 to 99, male and female, and LGBTQ+ friendly.

This is an excellent opportunity for a clinician seeking the independence of private practice without the burden of managing office operations, billing, credentialing, and administrative responsibilities. Focus on providing exceptional patient care while we provide the support and resources needed to help your practice thrive.
