Remote Non Voice Email Chat Support Jobs in Rochester, NY

Life Mend Mental and Behavioral Services is actively seeking a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Mental Health Counselor to join our team in a full-time, remote position based in Rochester, New York. Our ideal candidate is a licensed mental health professional who is eager to make a positive impact on clients' lives while enjoying flexibility in their work schedule and the resources to support their practice.

At Life Mend Mental and Behavioral Services, we are committed to providing exceptional mental health care to our client community. Our practice specializes in outpatient services that focus on individual counseling. We prioritize a supportive environment where mental health professionals can thrive, offering not only competitive compensation but also extensive technological and administrative support. Our mission is to foster mental wellness and resilience, ensuring that our clients receive tailored care suited to their needs.

The position is fully remote, allowing you to work from the comfort of your home while managing your schedule to fit your lifestyle. We ensure that our counselors have access to an all-in-one therapy platform that serves as your private online office, offering tools for live consultations via video and chat, as well as secure messaging with clients. This setup minimizes administrative burdens and enables you to focus solely on providing high-quality care.

• Conduct individual counseling sessions through video chats to address client mental health needs and to promote holistic wellbeing.
• Encourage open dialogue with clients about their emotions and experiences, facilitating insight and understanding in their personal journeys.
• Act as a dedicated client advocate, empowering individuals to define and work toward their personal goals.
• Evaluate clients’ mental health conditions using a thorough assessment process, and develop treatment plans grounded in evidence-based practices according to your clinical expertise.
• Maintain accurate clinical documentation and ensure compliance with ethical standards and regulations applicable to remote therapy practices.

Our client population consists of stable adults with low acuity mental health issues. All clients undergo a careful screening process before booking, ensuring that every case is manageable and well-suited to your professional focus. Additionally, we pride ourselves on matching counselors to clients based on shared interests and specialties, providing a personalized approach to therapy that enhances therapeutic outcomes.

• A Master’s degree in Social Work, Marriage and Family Therapy, Mental Health Counseling, or Psychology is required.
• Candidates must hold a valid and active license from the state board to practice independently without supervision. Acceptable licenses include:
• Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT)
• Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC)
• Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
• No limited or provisional licenses will be considered, and candidates must be in good standing with no disciplinary actions on their record.

While a focus on stability and low acuity clients is essential, experience working in remote therapy settings or proficiency with telehealth tools is advantageous. Candidates who excel in interpersonal skills and demonstrate a sympathetic nature, alongside strong computer literacy, will thrive in this role.

• Competitive salary range of USD 90,000 to 104,000 annually, commensurate with experience and hours worked.
• A sign-on bonus to welcome you to our team.
• Weekly direct deposit for timely payroll management.
• Monthly healthcare stipend for full-time counselors, enhancing your quality of life.
