Bayridge Effective Therapy

Location: Remote, California Only
Status: W-2 Employee | Part-Time

BayRidge Effective Therapy is a growing, trauma-informed virtual therapy practice looking for an exceptional bilingual Spanish-speaking AMFT and/or APCC to join our team.

We’re looking for someone who wants more than a place to collect hours. We want someone who is proactive, resourceful, adaptable, positive, and genuinely excited to keep learning. You should be comfortable working independently while also wanting a team that knows you, supports you, and invests in your growth.

This position is especially exciting for someone interested in trauma work. EMDR training or experience is strongly preferred, and the right associate will also have the opportunity to learn psychological evaluations for immigration cases and develop an additional area of professional expertise.

What Makes This Role Unique

Clinical Supervision & Support
Weekly clinical supervision is provided at no cost. Supervision includes case consultation, clinical development, problem solving, and support as you develop your own voice and confidence as a therapist.

Professional Development
We regularly gather and share free clinical training opportunities, typically at least four per month, that clinicians can complete on their own time. Training and new clinical skills may also be incorporated into supervision and case consultation.

Immigration Psychological Evaluation Training
Interested in expanding beyond traditional therapy? Associates may have the opportunity to learn our psychological immigration evaluation process, including specialized interviewing, assessment, documentation, and report development. Prior immigration evaluation experience is not required. Approved immigration evaluation work is compensated at $50/hour.

Spanish Translation Opportunities
Bilingual associates may also have opportunities to provide Spanish translation support for BayRidge services and evaluation work. Approved translation work is compensated at $40/hour.

Referral & Marketing Support
We are actively working to grow referrals through online marketing, social media, blogs, SEO, networking calls, in-person outreach, professional relationships, mailing campaigns, community involvement, and continued expansion onto insurance panels. You will also be featured on our website and through practice marketing.

Psychology Today Support
BayRidge will cover the cost of your Psychology Today profile for any month in which your profile generates at least two referrals.

Flexible Scheduling
Create a schedule that works with your life while maintaining consistency and accountability to your clients.

Community Opportunities
Interested in getting involved outside of sessions? Clinicians may have opportunities for paid participation at local career fairs, mental health booths, networking events, and other community outreach activities.

Foster Care & Trauma Program
After three months, associates may opt into our foster care partnership and provide one trauma-focused pro bono session per week. The client receives the session at no cost, while the associate is still compensated by BayRidge for the clinical time.

• Active California registration as an AMFT and/or APCC in good standing

A Little About BayRidge

BayRidge is growing, and we want our clinicians to grow with us.

We believe associates deserve more than supervision hours and a list of clients. We want to know where you want to go professionally and help you develop the experience, confidence, and skills to get there.

You’ll have independence here, but you won’t be left on an island. We believe in consultation, continued learning, creativity, transparency, kindness, and a good dose of humor.

We don’t expect you to know everything. We do want you to be someone who gets curious, looks for solutions, asks questions, takes initiative, and gets excited about new opportunities.

If you’re bilingual in Spanish and English, have at least a year remaining in your associate journey, and want to grow your experience in trauma therapy, EMDR, and potentially immigration psychological evaluations, we would love to hear from you.
