What is a per diem LMHC?

A Per Diem LMHC is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works on an as-needed basis, rather than having a set full-time or part-time schedule. These professionals typically provide counseling services, such as therapy sessions, crisis intervention, or mental health assessments, and are called in when there is a demand for additional support. Per diem positions offer flexibility for both the counselor and the employer, allowing LMHCs to work in various settings, including hospitals, clinics, schools, or community organizations, depending on need.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a per diem LMHC?

To thrive as a Per Diem LMHC, you need a master's degree in counseling or a related field, state licensure, and strong clinical assessment and therapy skills. Familiarity with electronic health records (EHRs), telehealth platforms, and documentation standards is typically required. Outstanding interpersonal skills, empathy, and adaptability help you build rapport with diverse clients and manage variable caseloads. These skills are crucial for delivering effective mental health care in flexible, often fast-paced environments where both clinical excellence and efficient workflow matter.

How does scheduling and workload flexibility typically work for a per diem LMHC?

Per Diem Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs) often enjoy significant flexibility in their scheduling, as these roles are designed to provide coverage based on clinic needs or client demand. Typically, you can indicate your availability in advance, and assignments may range from a few hours to full shifts, depending on caseload fluctuations. This flexibility is ideal for professionals seeking work-life balance or supplementing other employment, but it may come with less predictability in hours. Collaboration with the core clinical team remains important, as per diem LMHCs are expected to communicate effectively regarding client care and documentation.

Two positions available
Are you passionate about supporting college student mental health in a dynamic, diverse campus community? The Brandeis Counseling Center is seeking two Per Diem Staff Therapists to join our team on a temporary basis to help meet student care needs this spring.
In this role, you will provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and strength-based mental health care to undergraduate and graduate students. You will work with a collaborative team of clinicians while supporting students through individual therapy, group treatment, crisis support, and community outreach.
This is an excellent opportunity for clinicians who enjoy short-term, high-impact work in a university counseling setting and who value inclusive, identity-affirming care.
What You Will Do
  • Provide individual and group therapy for college students
  • Conduct assessments, triage, and crisis intervention
  • Deliver trauma-informed and culturally adaptive care
  • Participate in community outreach, workshops, and consultation
  • Collaborate with campus partners to support student wellbeing
  • Contribute to team meetings, documentation, and program initiatives

Clinicians may also bring or develop a specialty area, such as trauma, substance use, eating disorders, LGBTQIA+ populations, Mandarin-speaking students, or other areas relevant to student wellbeing.
Qualifications
  • Master's degree in Social Work or Mental Health Counseling (or PhD/PsyD in a related field)
  • LICSW or LMHC license in Massachusetts
  • Experience providing therapy to young adults or college students preferred
  • Commitment to multicultural, trauma-informed, and strengths-based clinical practice

If you are looking for meaningful, flexible clinical work supporting students during a critical time in the academic year, we encourage you to apply.
Apply today and help support student mental health at Brandeis.
