What is a part time counselor?

Part time counselors are professionals who provide counseling services on a flexible or reduced-hour basis, rather than working full time. They may work in schools, clinics, community organizations, or private practices, helping clients with issues such as mental health, career guidance, or personal development. Part time counselors often balance their schedules to accommodate other commitments or offer services during evenings and weekends. Their responsibilities and qualifications are generally similar to those of full-time counselors, though their caseloads may be smaller. This role is ideal for those seeking flexibility in their work-life balance while still making a positive impact.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a part time counselor?

To thrive as a Part Time Counselor, you generally need a degree in counseling, psychology, or a related field, along with relevant licensure or certification depending on your location. Familiarity with counseling software, electronic record-keeping systems, and assessment tools is typically required. Strong interpersonal skills, active listening, and empathy help counselors build trust and effectively support clients. These competencies ensure that counselors can provide ethical, effective guidance and emotional support, even within limited part-time hours.

How does a part time counselor typically coordinate with full-time staff and other team members to support clients effectively?

As a part-time counselor, collaboration with full-time staff and other professionals is essential to maintain continuity of care for clients. This often involves attending regular team meetings, sharing progress notes through secure digital systems, and participating in case consultations. While schedules may differ, part-time counselors usually coordinate closely with supervisors and case managers to ensure everyone is updated on client needs and treatment plans. Open communication and flexibility are key to successfully integrating into the broader counseling team and providing consistent support.

Job description

Supporting emotional wellness for academic success

In School Counselor (Full Time and Part Time Available)
Help students thrive where they spend their days! Transitions Counseling Services is hiring compassionate, dedicated clinicians to provide in school counseling to students across our partnering public school districts. If you love working with kids and teens, value autonomy, and want to be part of a supportive and genuinely fun team, we would love to hear from you!
About the Role
As an in school counselor, you will provide individual counseling to students during the school day, working closely and collaboratively with school counselors and staff to support each student's success. Positions are available serving students from elementary age through high school.
Some evening and weekend hours are required to conduct family sessions, parent meetings, intake assessments, and treatment planning update sessions. Outside of school hours, your schedule is flexible and autonomous, so you can build it in the way that works best for you and the families you serve.
Where You Will Work
We are currently seeking counselors to provide services in one or a combination of districts and/or schools including North Attleboro, Mansfield, Medway, and Bellingham. Some travel between districts and between school buildings is part of the role, and reliable transportation is required.
Who We Are Looking For
•     Independently licensed clinicians (LICSW or LMHC), or
•     Provisionally licensed clinicians with a master's degree in social work or counseling who are working toward independent licensure
•     Experience with children and adolescents preferred
•     Comfort with documentation and electronic health records (we use SimplePractice)
•     A collaborative, warm, and student centered approach
Compensation and Benefits
•     $35 to 75 per clinical session, reflective of licensure level and whether the role is full time or part time
•     Free clinical supervision for provisionally licensed clinicians
•     Full time positions are eligible for medical and dental insurance
•     401(k) with company match
•     Paid time off
•     CEU support
•     Flexible, autonomous scheduling outside of school hours
•     An excellent culture and a fun, supportive work environment
