These positions may offer flexibility in scheduling but could have limited benefits compared to full-time roles.

What skills and qualifications are needed to work in part time mental health?

To thrive as a Part-Time Mental Health Professional, you generally need a relevant degree (such as psychology, social work, or counseling) and appropriate licensure or certification. Familiarity with electronic health records (EHRs), telehealth platforms, and standardized assessment tools is typically required. Strong interpersonal skills, active listening, and cultural sensitivity help build trust and rapport with clients. These skills and qualifications are crucial for providing effective, ethical, and compassionate care while managing a flexible, often autonomous schedule.

Job description

Description

Ascend Medical - Behavioral Health Team
Location: Alpharetta, GA| Hybrid & In-Person Opportunities Available


Help Us Redefine Whole Person Care

At Ascend Medical, we believe behavioral health is not separate from healthcare - it is healthcare. We are building an integrated model where therapists are empowered to focus on what matters most: meaningful patient relationships, clinical excellence, and long-term healing.
We are growing our Behavioral Health Division across Metro Atlanta and are seeking compassionate, mission-driven therapists who want to be part of something bigger than a traditional therapy practice.
Whether you are an experienced clinician with an established caseload, a therapist looking to grow your practice with organizational support, or a collaborative clinician excited about integrated care, we would love to connect.

More Time for Patients. Less Time on Administrative Burdens.

We know many therapists entered this profession to help people - not to spend evenings battling scheduling issues, insurance paperwork, intake coordination, or marketing themselves online.
Our model is designed to support clinicians by providing operational infrastructure so you can focus more of your energy on patient care and clinical impact.
Support may include:
Scheduling and patient coordination support
Insurance credentialing assistance
Billing and revenue cycle support
Marketing and referral development
Intake and patient onboarding assistance
EMR and technology training/support
Collaborative care coordination
Office space and operational infrastructure

Build Your Practice - Without Building It Alone

We recognize that growing and maintaining a caseload can feel overwhelming and isolating in private practice.
At Ascend, therapists benefit from:
Internal referrals from primary care and psychiatry
Community partnership opportunities
Marketing and outreach support
Access to integrated care teams
Flexibility to develop specialty niches and passions
Opportunities to help shape programs and services as we grow
Whether your passion is grief, trauma, women's health, anxiety, relationships, chronic illness, faith-based counseling, adolescents, LGBTQ+ support, substance use, or another specialty area - we want to help you build meaningful clinical work around your strengths.

Clinical Autonomy Matters Here

We believe therapists thrive when they are trusted as professionals.
Our clinicians maintain:
Clinical independence and therapeutic approach
Flexibility in scheduling structures
Ability to develop specialty focus areas
Input into patient care collaboration
Opportunities to help shape culture and programming
We aim to create an environment where therapists feel supported - not micromanaged.

Integrated, Whole Person Care

Ascend's model brings together:
Primary Care
Psychiatry
Therapy
Care Coordination
Senior Care
Wellness-focused services
This integrated approach allows therapists to care for patients more comprehensively while collaborating with medical professionals who value behavioral health as an essential component of overall wellbeing.
Our mission is simple:
To elevate mind, body, and soul.

Who We're Looking For

We are intentionally building a diverse behavioral health team and welcome clinicians across a variety of backgrounds, specialties, and career stages.
Ideal candidates are:
Compassionate and patient-centered
Collaborative and growth-oriented
Passionate about whole-person care
Interested in being part of a growing, mission-driven organization
Excited by the opportunity to help shape the future of integrated behavioral healthcare
We welcome:
Full-time clinicians
Part-time clinicians
Hybrid and virtual therapists
Established clinicians with existing caseloads
Therapists looking to grow their practice
"Builder" clinicians interested in helping expand teams and programs
Associate-level clinicians where supervision structures permit

Qualifications

Active Georgia license (or license eligibility) in one of the following:
- LPC / APC
- LCSW / LMSW
- LMFT / AMFT
- Psychologist
- Other relevant behavioral health licensure
Strong interpersonal and communication skills
Commitment to ethical, high-quality patient care

Why Join Ascend Now?

We are at an exciting stage of growth with new offices opening across Metro Atlanta and expanding partnerships throughout the community.
This is a unique opportunity to:
Join a rapidly growing behavioral health platform early
Help shape culture and clinical programs
Collaborate across disciplines
Grow professionally alongside an exceptional team
Deliver care in a model designed around both patient wellbeing and clinician sustainability
If you are looking for a place where your clinical work is valued, your voice matters, and your focus can remain on helping people heal - we would love to meet you.
