We are currently seeking a Provisional Licensed Counselor (PLPC, PLMFT, LMSW, or CSW) for a hybrid role that blends administrative intake coordination with direct client care. This unique position offers a chance to build both clinical and operational experience within a supportive environment.


This position will have responsibilities divided between in-office intake coordination duties and providing outpatient mental health counseling services to individuals and families. This is an excellent opportunity for a provisional licensed professional looking to grow clinically while gaining exposure to the administrative side of behavioral health operations.

  • Triage client needs and assign appropriate services
  • Complete intake documentation and onboarding forms
  • Support the intake process by working with clients until they are assigned to a long-term counselor
  • Collaborate with clinical and administrative teams to ensure efficient client transitions
  • Assist with front desk coverage, follow-up calls, and general administrative duties

Clinical Counseling Services:

  • Provide outpatient individual counseling services to clients and families (virtually and/or in-office)
  • Maintain a consistent caseload while delivering high-quality, evidence-based therapeutic care
  • Complete progress notes, treatment plans, and clinical documentation in a timely manner
  • Participate in clinical supervision and team meetings
  • Assist in identifying client needs and referring to internal or external resources as needed

Qualifications:

  • Must hold provisional licensure in the state of Louisiana: PLPC, PLMFT, LMSW, or CSW
  • Previous experience in a mental health or counseling setting preferred
  • Strong organizational, communication, and time management skills
  • Comfortable with hybrid responsibilities involving both client-facing and administrative work
  • Ability to work independently, exercise good judgment, and maintain confidentiality
  • Must be available for a minimum of 20 hours weekly
