About Job

Lumen Health and Psychological Services Inc. is a group private practice offering personalized, ethical, and deeply supportive mental health care. We prioritize clinician well-being, autonomy, and professional development—while offering a high-touch administrative support system you won’t find in large agencies. We are currently looking for an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT), Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC) or Associate Clinical Social Worker (APCC) to join our compassionate, tight-knit, and growing telehealth team.

Why Join Lumen?

  • Work-life balance is not a buzzword here—it’s our foundation.
  • No billing or marketing stress—just focus on your clinical work.
  • Remote-first & tech-supported—you’ll receive a company laptop, telehealth and EHR platforms.
  • We listen—accessible, caring leadership that supports your needs in real-time.
  • Hourly pay—not per session—you get paid for your time, not just attended appointments.
  • Post Licensure—option to stay on as a fully licensed provider with increased pay.

Responsibilities
