Life Mend Mental and Behavioral Services is a community health clinic committed to enhancing the mental well-being of its clients. We believe in a holistic approach to mental health, focusing on creating an inclusive environment that supports both clients and counselors. Our mission is to provide accessible mental health care that caters to the diverse needs of individuals, and our team is dedicated to fostering growth and healing in our community.

This role is completely remote, allowing you to work from anywhere while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. You will set your own hours and meet with clients via our secure therapy platform, which comprises features for both video and text interactions. Our infrastructure supports counselors with extensive administrative and technological resources, removing the burden of paperwork and enabling you to focus solely on client care.

As a Licensed Remote Mental Health Counselor, you will undertake a range of responsibilities to ensure your clients achieve their therapeutic goals:

You will work primarily with stable adults who are experiencing low acuity mental health challenges. Our patient population is carefully screened to ensure that counselors are paired with clients that align with their specific specializations and demographic preferences. This tailored approach allows for more effective therapeutic relationships and better client outcomes, as we strive to match you with individuals whose needs align with your expertise.

To be considered for this role, candidates must meet the following qualifications:

• Hold a Master's degree in Social Work, Marriage and Family Therapy, Mental Health Counseling, or Psychology.

• Demonstrate strong interpersonal skills and a sympathetic nature towards clients.
• Exhibit computer literacy and comfort with telehealth platforms, ensuring effective use of our all-in-one counselor dashboard for client management.

While prior experience is not mandatory, candidates with previous counseling experience are preferred, especially those familiar with remote therapy practices. Skills in crisis intervention, treatment planning, and evidence-based therapies will be considered beneficial.

We offer an attractive compensation package that includes:

• A competitive salary range of USD 90,000 – 104,000 per year based on your working hours.
• A rewarding sign-on bonus to help you get started with us quickly.
