What is a part time independent?

Part Time Independents are individuals who work on a self-employed or freelance basis, typically taking on projects or assignments without being committed to a single employer, and do so for less than full-time hours. They may work in various industries such as consulting, writing, graphic design, or delivery services. This flexible work arrangement allows them to manage their own schedules and often balance multiple clients or responsibilities. Part Time Independents are responsible for their own taxes, benefits, and business expenses.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as a part time independent?

To thrive as a Part-Time Independent Contractor, you generally need specialized expertise in your chosen field, self-motivation, and the ability to manage your own schedule. Familiarity with productivity tools like project management software, invoicing systems, and sometimes relevant professional certifications can be beneficial. Strong communication, time management, and adaptability are crucial soft skills that help you build client relationships and deliver results independently. These skills and qualities are essential for maintaining consistent work quality, meeting deadlines, and sustaining client trust while working autonomously.

What are common challenges faced by part time independents, and how can they be addressed?

Part-time independent professionals often encounter challenges such as managing inconsistent workloads, balancing multiple clients or projects, and ensuring timely communication. It can also be difficult to set boundaries between work and personal life, especially when working remotely. To address these challenges, it's helpful to establish clear contracts, set realistic deadlines, communicate proactively with clients, and use productivity tools to stay organized. Building a reliable network and maintaining a consistent work routine also contribute to long-term success in this flexible role.

What is the difference between Part Time Independent vs Part Time Employee?

AspectPart Time IndependentPart Time Employee

Work EnvironmentSelf-managed, flexible locations, remote or client sitesWork at employer's location or designated workplace
Employer & Industry UsageCommon in freelance, consulting, gig economyStandard in retail, hospitality, office jobs

Part Time Independent roles offer flexibility and autonomy, often suited for freelancers or contractors, while Part Time Employees work under employer supervision with more structured schedules. Understanding these differences helps job seekers choose roles aligned with their preferences and credentials.

Part-Time Independent Contractor Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)

Garfield Counseling Center, Inc. (GCC)

Chicago, IL 60624  |  Part-Time, 1099 Independent Contractor  |  Behavioral Health / Substance Use Treatment

About Us

Garfield Counseling Center, Inc. (GCC) is a SAMHSA-certified, CARF 3-Year Accredited Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) providing comprehensive behavioral health and substance use disorder treatment services to the Chicago community. As a nonprofit organization licensed under the Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS/DBHR), GCC is committed to delivering high-quality, evidence-based, and compassionate care to individuals and families affected by substance use and mental health challenges.

We are growing our multidisciplinary clinical team and are seeking a dedicated Part-Time Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) to join us.

Position Summary

The Part-Time LCSW will provide individual, group, and/or family therapy to clients receiving substance use and behavioral health treatment. This role is engaged as a 1099 independent contractor, with the potential to transition to a full-time position based on program growth, client volume, and mutual fit. This role involves conducting clinical assessments, developing individualized treatment plans, and collaborating with an interdisciplinary care team including counselors, medical providers, and case managers to support client recovery and overall wellness.

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments and diagnostic evaluations
  • Develop, implement, and regularly update individualized treatment plans
  • Provide individual, group, and/or family therapy using evidence-based modalities
  • Maintain timely, accurate clinical documentation in compliance with 42 CFR Part 2, CARF, and IDHS/DBHR standards
  • Coordinate care with medical providers, counselors, and case management staff
  • Participate in treatment team meetings and clinical case consultations
  • Complete crisis intervention and safety planning as needed
  • Maintain compliance with all agency policies, confidentiality requirements, and applicable state/federal regulations
  • Support quality improvement initiatives and audit-readiness efforts as needed

Qualifications

  • Active, unrestricted Illinois LCSW license (IDFPR) in good standing
  • Master's degree in Social Work (MSW) from an accredited program
  • Experience providing clinical services in a behavioral health, substance use treatment, or OTP setting preferred
  • Familiarity with 42 CFR Part 2 confidentiality regulations and CARF accreditation standards a plus
  • Experience with co-occurring disorders (mental health and substance use) preferred
  • Strong assessment, documentation, and clinical judgment skills
  • Ability to work effectively within a multidisciplinary treatment team
  • Excellent interpersonal, organizational, and communication skills
  • Proficiency with electronic health records (EHR) systems

Pay Range

$41.00–$52.00 per hour, commensurate with experience. As a 1099 independent contractor role, this rate is paid gross; the contractor is responsible for their own tax withholding, and the position does not include employee benefits (e.g., health insurance, PTO, retirement contributions).

Schedule & Engagement

Part-time, 1099 independent contractor engagement; flexible scheduling available. Specific days/hours to be discussed during the interview process. There is potential for this role to transition to a full-time, employed position in the future as GCC's program continues to grow.

Why Join GCC

  • Be part of a mission-driven, CARF-accredited organization making a meaningful impact in the Chicago community
  • Collaborative, supportive multidisciplinary team environment
  • Opportunity to contribute to a growing behavioral health program
  • Competitive, experience-based compensation
