Remote Therapist - Mississippi

About Talkiatry

Talkiatry is a clinician-founded virtual mental health practice dedicated to delivering quality outpatient care while increasing patient access to treatment through an innovative, clinician-focused care model and supporting infrastructure.

Role Overview

This position is targeted at independently licensed therapists who seek predictable W-2 earnings accompanied by full benefits, flexible scheduling within a structured outpatient framework, low administrative responsibilities, and well-defined caseload and documentation expectations. The outpatient model is deliberately tailored for virtual delivery rather than adapted from inpatient systems, ensuring well-organized therapeutic care.

Typical Daily Activities

• Fully remote outpatient therapy sessions
• Providing care to clients with primarily lower-to-moderate acuity issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, mood disorders, OCD, among others
• Standard 60-minute intake and follow-up sessions
• Maintaining a consistent outpatient client roster with clear goals
• No duties involving inpatient, intensive outpatient programs, partial hospitalization, or emergency/crisis calls
• Access to an in-house referral network including psychiatrists
• Comprehensive operational support covering scheduling, billing, intake coordination, credentialing, and licensing

Clinical Autonomy and Flexibility

• Full independence in treatment decisions
• Ability to influence schedule and availability within operational criteria
• Practice guided by evidence-based clinical standards
• Expectations co-shaped by clinicians promoting professional judgment and accountability
• Independent practice with accessible clinical supervision and support
• Administrative burdens minimized to prioritize patient care

Candidate Requirements

• Possess independent licensure as LCSW, LMFT, LPC, LMHC or equivalent
• Hold an active, unrestricted license with multi-state licensing support available
• Maintain two or more active independent state licenses (excluding CA, NY, and MA)
• Comfortable managing a stable outpatient caseload
• Strong clinical judgment, effective communication, and autonomous decision-making skills
• Ability to operate efficiently in a fast-paced yet sustainable outpatient setting
• Preferred experience in outpatient clinics, community mental health, hospital settings, IOP, or other structured clinical environments
• Highly desirable experience with structured, skills-based therapeutic modalities such as CBT, ACT, MI, or DBT-informed treatments
• Note: Position is not suitable for clinicians seeking licensure supervision or those wanting fully self-directed private practice; candidate will be part of a team

Compensation and Benefits

• Full-time or part-time W-2 employment options
• Base salary starting at $70,000 with potential to earn up to an additional $20,000 in incentives
• Salary increases based on tenure after 2 years
• Employer-covered health, dental, and vision insurance (up to full premium payment)
• 401(k) plan with employer matching contributions
• Paid time off, sick leave, and eleven paid holidays annually
• Paid parental leave and long-term retention perks including a 4-week paid sabbatical after five years
• Employer-paid malpractice insurance coverage based on occurrence
• Reimbursement and dedicated days off for continuing medical education (CME)
• Support for licensing including upfront coverage of associated fees
• Provision of necessary technology equipment
